Bringing financial self-reliance and respect through self-help groups in rural India, where women are becoming financially self-reliant through their savings groups. Self-help groups of rural women support easy access to credit to overcome the debt trap to reduce poverty. It is redefining the idea of micro-savings for the future in women's lives. Group savings are used for children's well-being, emergency medical needs, education, buying of agricultural inputs and most importantly, it gives women a great of respect and pride. Those days are now going by these initiatives where they had to bow to money lenders even for small amount of loans. Today, they inter-loan at nominal interest rates under the terms and conditions set by the women themselves!
In a compartmentalized world, the rights of women and those of children have often been promoted in isolation from one another.
"I CAN" shows how discrimination and other human rights violations against women affect children and vice versa.
We are effectively working for major development issues: promoting the human rights of adolescent girls, eliminating child marriage, Gender equality, the protection of human rights, especially of children, survival, protection, development and participation of every child and women of India.
