“I measure the progress of a community with the degree of progress woman have achieved.” - Dr. B.R. AMbedkar
We belong to the vast, unprotected working population of our country, who are considered informal workers.
Although we constitute 93% of India’s labour force, few labour laws or social protection include us. Our significant contribution to the nation’s economy is largely uncounted, undercounted or invisible.
Dr. Ambedkar Society was formed to empowered women to meet them with the society with gender equality and equal opportunity. We come together as poor, as women and as worker.
Dr. Ambedkar Society’s approach is to address the needs of the workers as a labour, as well as a woman.
This integrated and holistic view of workers has given birth to new and innovative ways to fight poverty and vulnerability.
Our goal for women is Be Your Own and Self-Reliance.
To Be Your Own we will support them to secure a better place in the society and also help them for self-reliant.
Self-reliance is the ability to work individually and collectively to achieve economic freedom and retain decision making power over matters that concern our lives and livelihoods.
