Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Nari Tu Narayani
Basically, Nari Tu Narayani project is all about empowering young girls from underserved communities with the confidence and skills to shape their own future brightly. Growing up in a rural village, I saw many girls facing the gender
inequality, whether it was being denied on education, restricted from using smartphones or told that their aspirations were less important than household responsibilities. In this project, We have added some girls who have the same issues in their young age like me. Now we all want to help girls who are still facing the similar challenges in underserved communities. Through
this initiative, we organized workshops on financial literacy, digital skills and self-confidence to help these girls become more independent. I also connect them with mentors who can offer guidance on education and career opportunities.
