FEEED - Women Empowerment
Though India is striving towards Sustainable Development path, status of women in India is far from satisfactory. At home, at work, and in their larger communities women are subjected to violence, abuse, unfair treatment, and at times denied opportunities to Learn, earn and lead a dignified life. Sadly, they face multiple inequality and discrimination owing to their marginalisation in terms of the their gender, cast, race and religion. FEEEDS shares this concern with the nation. Freeing them from these multiple clutches and see them empowered is top priority.
