Naujhil Integrated Rural Project for Health and Development

NIRPHAD's Objective The vision and mission strategy of NIRPHAD have emphasized empowerment of women through financial independence, which is crucial for them to be involved in the problem solving and decision-making process of the family and community. Since training avenues are scarce the women often become helpless apathetic and do not have control of their lives. Further their status was very low and they were many times subjected to domestic violence. When a woman has hard currency in her hand, her confidence level increase and she can use this as a lever for bargaining her power in the family and social milieu, which also includes controlling her sexuality. NIRPHAD attempts to correct the situation by providing training to women and also helping them establish a small business. The Objective NIRPHAD defines its objective as making villages self-reliant and free from exploitation.
