Despite India's economic growth, millions still live on less than the international poverty line of USD $3 a day. Women and children in rural and marginalised communities are especially vulnerable, often lacking access to essential support services. This can lead to food insecurity, poor health and limited education. Our programmes help break this cycle of poverty by creating pathways to sustainable livelihoods, enabling families to build more secure futures for themselves and their children.

We run four agriculture-based programmes that help families in rural India’s most marginalised communities to build sustainable livelihoods through training, toolkits and ongoing support. Focused on poultry, goat rearing, fish farming and agriculture, these programmes create lasting income opportunities. We place a strong emphasis on empowering women with the skills, confidence and financial independence to improve their families’ wellbeing and drive positive change across their communities.
