We also highlighted our efforts to amplify the voice and agency of womenโs groups in the project areas. 

The Chairperson of Ward 5, Mr. RajKumar Waiba expressed enthusiasm for collaborating with us and assured their support for the upcoming activities.
Our team also visited Ward 5, where we formed a women’s group including both the Dalit and Indigenous communities. Through this initiative, we aim to empower these communities using the REFLECT training sessions.
