Sadbhavna Trust

Current Grantee |

Sadbhavna Trust was founded in 1990 and works with women and adolescent girls from socio- economically backward communities residing in slum areas of Lucknow. They have grassroots interventions with social justice as a guiding philosophy, following a bottom-up and collective approach to decision-making. They are also involved in research to develop material for capacity building and advocacy on gender-based violence and have also incubated other organizations and collectives working on gender issues.

Strengthen women’s participation in active citizenship, making them participate in the running of institutions and administration and to integrate them into the democratic process by enhancing their competencies so they can join the mainstream.

Why they are the right choice for others:

Implementing programmes on leadership development of young women from marginalised backgrounds
Conceptualising and implementing community interventions, conducting research, undertaking capacity-building and material development projects to enable intervention in social justice issues
Producing and developing pedagogic strategies that promote feminist leadership for wider dissemination.
