Empowering Minds, Bridging Divides
In an increasingly developing भारत, promoting financial and digital literacy for women and the entire community.
The Digital Sakhi Project aims to bridge the digital divide and promote financial literacy amongst women in rural communities. Under this initiative, women from villages, who demonstrate spark and will be a catalyst for change, are identified and trained to become Digital Sakhis by undergoing comprehensive digital and financial training modules. As part of the first component of the project, these trained Digital Sakhis further impart education to the community members with a special focus on women. The second component includes identifying and training existing women entrepreneurs and equipping them with necessary skills of setting up their rural microenterprises with the technical support of entrepreneurship development experts. In the third component, these Digital Sakhis play the role of catalysts in linking the social entitlement schemes of the Government with the last mile beneficiaries.
