Ummeed
The program is an initiative focused on the education and leadership skills of tribal girls. Through this initiative, we help them to create a comfortable, easy and supportive environment for pursuing their higher education, self development and building dreams and aspirations so that they can take important decisions related to their life correctly and be able to speak freely.

Ummeed program builds capacity among girls via three building blocks that are spread over a year of activities.
How Ummeed has created an impact so far?
Girls started focusing on their studies, started taking out time for studies at home along with household chores, and began sharing her views with family, friends and teachers. They are able to identify forms of gender based violence and discrimination. They were able to create awareness among other girls to address such social issues.
Participants who were enrolled in the program, many of them got promoted to their next level. Many girls who discontinued the schools were re-enrolled in the program. Girls were able to think about their dreams in life, decide for themselves what they would want to be and become change agents in their communities.
