Project Namakkal (1) empowered over 180 Dalit women, including widows, in five villages in south-west Tamil Nadu by providing livelihood training so that they could generate income through the production of coir rope. A Revolving Fund enabled these women to deposit savings & make loans so that they could invest in their activities, contribute to household income & improve the quality of family life. Other activities included raising the awareness of human rights issues among these women & villagers generally in an area which has a high-level of domestic violence.
