We are excited to share with you the latest updates from our initiative aimed at empowering women and young girls in remote areas. School of Hope and Empowerment (S.H.E), launched by Tata Communications and The Better India is a groundbreaking initiative dedicated to increasing women’s digital representation and creating an inspiring and nurturing environment that fosters education, mentorship, and empowerment. In the year 2021, we focused on creating entrepreneurial opportunities for rural women in Jharkhand. By adapting a true story into a six-part inspirational video series and a six-module educational series, which we distributed through an ecosystem that empowered aspiring entrepreneurs. We provided mentorship and assistance to female entrepreneurs, as well as business grants to a select few.

Their stories emphasise the importance of education and consistent effort in achieving a brighter future.

Our project will foster entrepreneurial opportunities for women in Odisha's peri-urban areas. We believe that this initiative will result in transformative change and the empowerment of women in the region. On 2 March 2023, we held the ‘School of Hope and Empowerment Meet’ in New Delhi. This meet was a gathering of like-minded individuals who believe in the power of women’s empowerment. In the spirit of International Women's Month, we were privileged to celebrate the ongoing local efforts to empower women at this event, where we came together to form a stronger, more resilient, sustainable, and collaborative network. The meet featured distinguished partners and stakeholders of S.H.E, representatives from philanthropic organisations, think tanks, NGOs, and corporate foundations. As always, we appreciate our stakeholders’ and partners’ ongoing assistance in making our mission a reality. We look forward to providing you with additional updates as we work to empower women and young girls across the country.   Connect with us!
