Areas of Intervention
Digital & Financial Inclusion
Our Digital and Financial Inclusion program
is designed to unlock economic empowerment for rural communities, with a special
focus on women, through the power of digital technology and access to finance
through in-house developed “Digital Sakhi”. This initiative not only promotes
financial inclusion but also sparks entrepreneurship among women, facilitating
income generation and economic growth. By developing Digital Seva Kendras, we
provide essential community services and support various local businesses.
Our Climate Impact Management initiative
through Project Prakrutiis committed to fostering environmental sustainability and
enhancing the livelihoods of local farmers. We focus on increasing green cover and
biodiversity, which not only benefits the environment but also supports the
agricultural community. By providing farmers with comprehensive training, essential
resources, and ongoing support, we enable them to adopt sustainable horticulture
practices and embrace multiple cropping systems.
Our Disaster Management initiative is
dedicated to proactively protecting communities from natural disasters. By
providing immediate relief materials and kits, we enhance community resilience and
support their recovery efforts in the aftermath of catastrophes. These actions are
in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 11 (Sustainable
Cities and Communities), ensuring that communities are better prepared to withstand
and overcome the negative effects of natural disasters.
Our Social Inclusion efforts encompass a
range of initiatives in road safety and healthcare, representing a holistic
approach to rural and semi-urban development. We understand the critical importance
of promoting safe riding practices to reduce accidents and injuries, ensuring that
community members can travel safely. Alongside this, we emphasize the provision of
preventive healthcare services, including regular health check-ups, vaccinations,
and health education programs.

Digital Sakhi project
In an increasingly developing भारत, promoting financial and digital
literacy for women and the entire community
The Digital Sakhi Project aims to bridge the digital divide and
promote financial literacy among women in rural communities. Under this
initiative, women from villages are identified and trained to become Digital
Sakhis by undergoing comprehensive digital and financial training modules. As
part of the first component of the project, these trained Digital Sakhis
further impart education to the community members with a special focus on
women. The second component includes identifying and training existing women
entrepreneurs, and equipping them with necessary skills of setting up their
rural microenterprises with the technical support of entrepreneurship
development experts. In the third component, these Digital Sakhis play the role
of PUBLIC catalysts in linking the social entitlement schemes of the Government
with the last mile beneficiaries.
In FY24, the Digital Sakhi project embarked on an expansion journey,
reaching out to four new geographies across India. These included Bihar
(Supaul), Uttar Pradesh (Gorakhpur), Tamil Nadu (Madurai), and West Bengal
(Murshidabad), augmenting the existing projects already thriving in South and
North Karnataka (Tumkur, Bidar, Gulbarga, and Kolar) as well as in Kerala
(Alleppey and Kottayam).
