Empowering Girls - Transformative Initiatives by Kadam Education Initiative

The Kadam Education Initiative (KEI)has been a transformative force for girls in Ahmedabad. Many of these girls come from orphaned or single-parent backgrounds, battling poverty, familial pressures, and the looming threat of trafficking. Yet, within the nurturing embrace of KEI, they find a haven of support and opportunity.

Kadam Resource Centre for Girls (KRCG): At the core of KEI's mission is the Kadam Resource Centre for Girls (KRCG), a sanctuary where these girls receive not just education, but a holistic blend of vocational skills, life coaching, and emotional support. Here, amidst the warmth of dedicated educators and mentors, they blossom into confident, resilient individuals.

Vocational Training: Vocational Training becomes their stepping stone to independence, equipping them with essential skills ranging from computer literacy to office management, paving the way for a future of self-reliance and financial stability.

Counselling and Life Skills: But KEI goes beyond mere skill-building; it nurtures the spirit. Through counselling and life skills programs, these girls learn to heal from past traumas, embrace their worth, and envision a future filled with promise and possibility.

Exposure Visits: Guided exposure visits open doors to a world of opportunities, where they meet inspiring women professionals, igniting dreams and aspirations they never thought possible.

Monitoring and Evaluation: And as KEI diligently monitors their progress, providing regular reports and feedback, the girls feel supported every step of their journey, knowing that their growth and success are celebrated and cherished.

Through compassion and dedication, KEI nurtures not just the minds, but the hearts and souls of these girls, instilling in them the belief that they are capable of greatness. With KEI's unwavering support, they dare to dream, they dare to rise, and they dare to change the world.

KEI is an integral programme of the Centre for Development (CfD - https://www.cfdngo.org/), which was founded as a child-centric organization in 1996 by Meera Malek. Her work in the underprivileged urban communities in Ahmedabad commenced as an initiative to end child labour; the young activist learned the complexity of the situation. CfD started addressing the basic causes that led to child labour; the struggle of the households to make two ends meet; lack of education and deprivation of the advantages that education might have provided in their lives.
