Quality English Medium Education for Underprivileged Girls

Girl’s education project is a long term continuous project by Amcha Ghar. Female literacy is very low in village of Uttan & nearby villages. Girls are kept away from formal schooling and they are kept at home to do household chores & fish cleaning work. This has some serious consequences such as, poor health and loss of equal opportunities, to individuals, families, communities and to the country. The parents are less aware about the benefits of educating girls. Therefore the main aim of the project is to improve female literacy in the village of Uttan & nearby villages by raising awareness about the importance of girl’s education and supporting girls from poor families into education. An educated girl will be a mother in the future and there is ample evidence to suggest that an educated mother ensures that her children will get an education regardless of gender, brings up healthier babies, has better family planning and they also participate in income generating activities and community social activities. Hence, this is a more reliable and sustainable approach to poverty reduction and wellbeing of the poorest. The proposed project intends to build on the capacity of our organizations to promote girl child education through gender responsiveness activities such as; designing of appropriate mechanisms for addressing inequality between girls and boys, empowering girls to have access and control in all societal aspects of social, economic and political; creating gender awareness among the communities; promoting gender equality, equity and relations between boys and girls in schools /colleges, women and men in the communities

The goal of the project is to promote girl child education and empowerment in rural schools and community level in Uttan & nearby villages.
