Empowerment of women is a process in which women, half of our population, challenge the existing norms and culture, that restricts them from coming out into the mainstream. The participation of women in Self Help Groups (SHGs) makes a significant impact on their empowerment both socially and economically. SSRE in its initiative to empower women is conducting livelihood programs for its SHGs in Kakori, District Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh.
