Our Girls-Our Pride Program

Our Girls -Our Pride program is being implementing in the 195 Garm Panchayats of Most backwards block of Ratanpura In Mau District and Manhihari and Varachawar Blocks of Ghazipur District of Uttar Pradesh. The Project is aimed to address the adolescents centered issue through empowering them in the shape of the strong groups and to build their capacity such a way that they could be able to address the issues and take the initiative towards adolescents’ rights and empowerment. The Project addressed the challenges with adolescents at all levels. collectivization, their capacity building, leadership development, and promotion of initiative for advocacy by their own with focusing the issues of early marriage, dropout from schoolings, health, and vocational skill development etc. Thus, we believe that socially excluded, deprived from all the development indicators and marginalized adolescents’ girls from community should be prioritized through their trainings and mobilization on the issues concerned to the empowerment to access their rights and entitlements as well as to ensure the women and Girl’s agency. Additionally, we also believe that if girls and young women are educated, sensitized about the social issues and bottlenecks and they are involved in the process of social change, then they will have a very positive environment. During dealing the issue of health among adolescents we focus on poor reproductive health and anemia, gender stereotypes, and early marriage, which it believes are the root causes of deprivations and disempowerment amongst young girls.
