Slum women's groups assess living conditions

By Neeraj Verma | Program Coordinator

Slum women discussing, assessing situations
Slum women discussing, assessing situations
  • Slum women’s group members, living and experiencing their living conditions and environment 24x7, 365 days in a year, understand all aspects of their circumstances. Trusting their wisdom, ability to analyse what they observe and experience, through discussions, a simple, low-cost replicable, scalable qualitative slum-level environmental assessment methodology evolved.
  • The power of the methodology lies in its being simple, understandable easily by less educated, illiterate slum-dwellers, academics, policy makers/implementers and directly propelling action by making risks/challenges emerge as visibly affecting the entire community. Subsequently, slums women’s groups with support of UHRC’s social facilitators develop and implement context-responsive action-plans to “pull” government services to slums.
