source of income and

sustainable livelihoods

Improved standard of living of

parents encourages higher

enrollment of children in school

SHGs as a foundation for

livelihood intervention and

participation of women in

livelihood activities

As a direct outcome of the

special initiatives being taken to

reduce child mortality

Better income ensures

availability of adequate food for

mother together with

improvement in delivery related

infrastructure

Enhanced sanitation and

access to clean drinking water

in the villages reduces the risk

of diseases

Massive plantations being

positive impact on the

environment

Partnership with international

agencies like UNICEF, UNFPA

etc

to traders without processing, at nominal profit.

• Revolving fund of Rs.50000 was given to a SHG for brick making

• The SHG members were involved in the entire planning process. They were

able to overcome the initial resistance from the men-folk in the village.

construct toilets.

• Apart from the sum of Rs. 2200 provided per households, families came

together and contributed their maximum in terms of labour and also materials.
