Literacy Training for Women

Facilitation of Community led Literacy Classes for Women

Currently in one target community, alongside other programs, we are running Literacy Classes for Women. These classes are led by community volunteers, who have had the privilege of receiving an education, and want to pass on this knowledge for the betterment of others. These classes help the women who participate to understand the basics of numeracy, and reading and writing in Bengali. These skills empower them to be more supportive mothers and grandmothers and also to have confidence when going about their daily duties. It’s well noted statistically that when women are educated it has a direct effect on the health and education of their children and lifts their community above the limitations of poverty.

If you have any questions or would like to request more information about this program, please contact us.
