Saheli Skill Circles

Safe Spaces Where Women Build Futures

Saheli Skill Circle brings women from slums and villages together in monthly empowerment meetings where they share stories, discover their rights, and learn practical life skills. "Saheli" means friend/sister – exactly what these circles provide: support, confidence, and real tools for independence.

What Happens in Saheli Circles

  • Rights Awareness: Legal rights, health knowledge, safety information
  • Skill Building: Basic budgeting, digital literacy, communication skills
  • Peer Support: Safe space to discuss family challenges, aspirations
  • Micro-Entrepreneurship: Simple business ideas they can start from home
