Project Details
Description and Impact
Launched in January 2018, our project aims to develop, train and empower tribal women of the neglected border villages between Maharashtra and Gujarat, in Dadra Nagar Haveli (DNH). Women in these communities traditionally have few earning opportunities and have suffered exploitation at the hands of employers.
We, along with our implementation partner, provide experiential training including exposure visits to successful concerns on dairy farming, poultry farming, vermi-compost, tailoring, and organic vegetable farming. We also conduct activities to build confidence and assertiveness and assist the women in developing links to relevant markets.
We have seen considerable increases in the women’s earnings, in some cases to Rs. 15,000 per month, which gives stability and certainty for them throughout the year. Our aspiration is that these economically empowered women can transform their tribal society from the inside, ensuring their children’s education and developing their communities by participating in village decisions.
Deliverables
We’re looking for an Experteer with communications and CSR background who can help us better communicate our programs and impact to various audiences, including community members, donors, and potential partners. You’ll work with our team to design the strategic structure of our annual report and lead our team to collect and develop all necessary materials for the annual report.
By the end of the 2 weeks of the project, we hope to achieve the following:
- Broad structure for the annual report and a plan for how to collect/create the content needed for the report
- Templates and frameworks our team can use in future annual reports
- Project manage our team through this process
Other requirements
Our ideal candidate is someone who has experience working abroad or across cultures and can adapt quickly to new environments.
