Business ideas for women education in India
Since India’s Independence, we have come a long way and the change is visible in the field of technology, lifestyle, development, and adapting change in almost every sphere of life.
But there is still a long road lie ahead of the country to jump from the list of developing countries to be placed under the list of developed countries.
In this long run, the participation of both men and women is equally needed in overall growth of a nation; this is where India is still lagging behind.
News of female foeticide, honour killings, rapes, and murders in the name of dowry has been filling the pages of everyday newspaper. Thus education is the only thing, which holds the power to bring the change in society’s backward mindset and provide equal opportunities for one and all.
Here are a few business ideas for women education in India:
Education in young age:
The young brain is capable of grasping things easily and for longer period of time, thus educating girls when they are young is very important.
This will change the way they see things, they will be capable enough to understand a problem and solve on their own.
Girls are not only meant to learn household works but also gain knowledge about everything.
It is the best time to bring out the hidden talents, these girls store in their heart and can be directed in working towards achieving their ambitions.
Community led educational programmes:
Education is not limited to the knowledge of words and frame sentences or just calculating numbers, but basics of life as well.
Teenagers find it difficult to adapt the change, which their body takes place during this period and some fail to understand the hormonal changes, which make them aggressive or phobic due to frequent mood swings.
The community can arrange a group of educated teenage girls and make other young teenage girls in the village learn the basic hygiene, sanitary pads, sex education, when they are at the attaining their adolescent period.
Creative learning and teaching techniques:
In a village or small town, where technology is still making its way through to get added in their daily life, women can be educated not only through books and notebooks but letting them know the importance of bank accounts, savings, loans, opening a business and ways to earn living independently.
Bunch of volunteers from cities and NGOs willingly visit these villages to teach the women (20-50) to make money out of many ways such as making candles, incense sticks, stitching, bamboo baskets, brooms and many more.
Small scale business opportunities can be created, which will help these women in empowering, building self confidence and will help them in earning and contributing in their family.
Counseling and comforting:
There are a lot of women, who face mid-life crisis, become widow at early age, get divorced, thrown out of in-law’s house or lose their children.
These women are everywhere in cities, small towns and in far of villages, they are not only face physical pain but they undergo severe psychological change, when they can take help from the NGOs or volunteer groups, which provide counseling and comfort their pain.
These groups also make them aware of their rights and virtues, help them in getting justice or adopting babies, job opportunities for widows and divorcees and provide old age homes.
These groups help them in finding ways, when they are psychologically lost, mend their broken confidence and help them in overcoming their phobias and fear.
These groups also provide lawyers, if one is stuck in some cases such as domestic violence or dowry cases or acid attack victims or violence on domestic helps.
There is so much more in depth than what we see on the surface. These are some of the opportunities for the entrepreneurs or business persons looking for ways to educate women in India. It is a noble job to educate women and you can earn out of it, what else can be better than this!
