Major Achievements: Efforts were made towards empowering rural women through the promotion of self-help groups, micro-enterprise development, and skill-building initiatives. 35 Self-Help Groups (SHGs), comprising 271 women, were supported to initiate or strengthen income-generating activities. A total of 47 women-led enterprises have been developed, enabling women to take charge of their livelihoods. Additionally, 13 Producers’ Groups were formed with a combined membership of 431 women, facilitating collective decision-making and access to markets.

capacity building efforts remained integral, with entrepreneurship and leadership trainings organised for women. Market linkages were facilitated through platforms like local fairs (e.g., Baliyatra), allowing women to showcase and sell their products.
