An integrated approach to build a equitable and empowered society
OUR VISION
Formation of a just, equitable, creative, and concerned society in which the oppressed, deprived, and marginalized can live in dignity, mutual trust, and fellowship.
OUR MISSION
Organizing ‘Community-Based Organizations’ empowered through knowledge and competencies so as to take responsibility for their own liberation and development.
In collaboration with the Grama Panchayat at Mudhol, our organization orchestrated skill training sessions tailored for both Adolescent Girls and Devadasi women. This initiative aimed to empower these marginalized groups by equipping them with valuable skills for economic independence. The program focused on enhancing their vocational abilities, fostering self-reliance and dignity. Through community partnership and support, we facilitated a platform for personal and professional growth, ensuring inclusivity and empowerment for all participants. This endeavor signifies our commitment to social upliftment and the promotion of gender equality in Mudhol.
In earlier times the devadasis had a social standing as they served the royalty and the religious priests and led a life of comfort as they were recognized and respected for their artistic talents. They were singers and dancers, who also performed and were entrusted with the care of temple deities. But with changing times, the practice degenerated and reached a stage where it has become a supply chain to feed the red light areas. Our Devadasi mothers come together in Mudhol to advocate for their children.
Education and awareness is the only solution to any social problem. Our education initiatives facilitate holistic development and promote inclusion for the marginalized sections. Our team member helps poor students in their Academics at Supportive Education Centre at Kishori Village.
Our participation in the State-level Children's Parliament in Bengaluru was a significant opportunity for civic engagement and youth empowerment. Representing our organization, we joined young leaders from across the state to discuss pertinent issues and propose solutions. This event fostered critical thinking, leadership skills, and civic responsibility among participating children. Through interactive sessions and debates, we encouraged active participation and the expression of diverse perspectives. Our involvement underscores our commitment to nurturing future leaders and promoting democratic values among the youth.
The children parliament provides sustainable and meaningful opportunities for children to engage in local, national, and international democratic processes. It enables children from all backgrounds and of all abilities to work together and to share experience that make active citizenship. Witnessing the importance of children’s parliament, we have taken up promotion of children’s parliament as one of the key activities to empower children. There are 584 children who are fully involved in children parliament activities.
It is the small change that makes the biggest impact.
