Our training programmes
help to develop womens self-esteem, confidence and leadership skills. Local women
leaders organize and take the SEWA movement forward. A womans identity as an
individual, and self-development with dignity are emphasized in training. Members learn
about Mahatma Gandhi and his values which are also SEWAs values and ideals. They
also discuss the importance of women workers in society and the struggle for equality.
These training programmes help raise the womens awareness levels. They also learn to
have a sense of pride in themselves and their organization.
