Recently, 25 women received life-changing vocational training from Bhupat Bhai, a Lokmitra serving with ESI, supported by Share & Care, in the village of Lilapur in Gujarat. A total of 12 women received training in the jewelry trade, while 13 received training in stitching. Bhupat received support both from Share & Care and the Government of India to conduct this training, and the skills the women learned during the process helped them to increase their confidence, become financially independent, and gain enough stability to pursue their dreams and uplift their communities. Many of the women are now working for businesses within India, operating their own businesses from their homes, or continuing to hone their skills through training.
All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them.
