Cosmo Nari Swyampurana
Program Overview
The Cosmo Nari Swaympurana Program is an empowerment initiative of Cosmo Foundation that enables tribal women to achieve financial independence through sustainable livelihood opportunities. Implemented in partnership with Women's Self-Help Groups (SHGs) across seven blocks of Chhindwara district, Madhya Pradesh, the program provides skill development, enterprise support, and production infrastructure to help women establish and manage income-generating businesses within their communities.
Why This Program
Economic empowerment plays a vital role in improving the quality of life for women and their families. However, many tribal women have limited access to livelihood opportunities, modern equipment, and entrepreneurial support.
The Cosmo Nari Swayampurana Program bridges this gap by providing skill development, production units, and market-oriented livelihood opportunities, enabling women to become financially independent while strengthening their local communities.
