Activities

Our field activities are concentrated in and around Samyagarh village, Gosbery block, Barh sub division of Patna district. We have started only limited activities at present which include:-

1. Pre- schools for pre- school children in three villages namely Samyagarh, Palashpur & Kurmi Chak. Two more are proposed at Chaksamia and Malpur villages. Besides imparting basic skills and general education, children are also trained in group work, health and hygiene. With more experience gained, we may be able to improve the quality of education further.
2. Computer Training for girls Selected girls are trained in basic computer skills in batches in the computer class provided at the computer center set up in a rented building, so that they have basic exposure to working with computers and they could pursue advance training elsewhere.
3. Dress designing and tailoring Two training centers are being run, one at Samyagarh and the other at sadiqpur. Basic training is provided to batches of girls who have completed their schooling so that they are self-employed and are able to earn a regular income. Training was provided to master trainers with the help of a trainer from USHA.
