Onze missie

De levensvoorwaarden en ontwikkelingskansen in onze Nederlandse cultuur zijn veel groter dan die in het binnenland van India. Wij willen met onze stichting een bijdrage leveren aan verbetering van de levensomstandigheden door concrete, kleinschalige, toetsbare projecten te ondersteunen in een afgebakend gebied in Centraal India. Ook uw hulp is daar hard nodig!

Nodig ons uit

Wij hebben de afgelopen jaren veel kennis en ervaring opgedaan over India; het leven op het platteland, de problemen en mogelijke oplossingen in de vorm van projecten. Wij zijn graag bereid voor groepen van scholen of verenigingen – geheel vrijblijvend – een presentatie te verzorgen.

Project Grihini course for 20-25 girls in Chabi, Mandla District, Madhya Pradesh, India

As per the need of the time, semi-literate or drop out girls too are admitted for this course, and accordingly the curriculum frequently is improved last years. This program has been proved a boon for the poor tribal girls and people have responded to this program every year with much enthusiasm.

Start date: Regular course every Year from July to May next year.

This project is meant as a vocational training for illiterate and semi-literate girls of the tribal districts of Mandla and Dindori. This project gives them training and motivation to become a good house-wife along with trainings to build up their life social and economically. This has helped very many girls to lead a standard family life and earn some income for their life.

The intended results of the project are to get 20-25 illiterate or semi-literate tribal girls equipped to lead a proper family life, who will bring up the family. The circumstances in the region are not so good:

- Nutritional status of children and women is poor.

- Too many drop out girls from schools.

- Very poor health care system.
