Trishul (NGO)
Women empowerment and child education

“The empowered woman is powerful beyond measure and beautiful beyond description”
“Children must be taught how to think and not what to think”


Empowering women and educating children’s
Every day that goes by, more women and children’s futures slip away. If we don’t act now, we risk two generations being left behind - at the same time.
Improvements in the status of women has often been shown to have positive impacts on their children, with increased investments in schooling, nutrition, and health. Yet in order to best target policies and investments, it is important to understand the nuances in a particular context, to better target where improvements may have maximum impact.

Women empowerment has become a significant topic of discussion in development and economics. It can also point to the approaches regarding other trivialized genders in a particular political or social context.
It is only through education that social transformation and economic freedom can be sought. Today, women are leaders who epitomize the human values of caring, sharing and re-building societies free of stress and violence.

OVERALL EXPERIENCES

Kajal Sangoi

My overall experience in TRISHUL was a different kind of experience in my life doing a social work is a different feeling when you do it and we people never make out time for such kind of experience thanks to my sociology teacher who gave us such a beautiful project where we faced something new in our day to day life. 10 days passed very fast and we love to make the students study in the NGO. The NGO consist of two branch (WOMEN AND CHILDREN CENTER) We mostly worked with the children center the children center was quite big there were four tables the students and the volunteer were divided into that many equipment, teaching aids, games, and story books were there.
 The students used to study with dedication motivation and love and also most of them were from the Marathi medium they were weak in English subject so I basically took reading books, story books, difficult dictation words from the books Also 7:45 its game time in that we taught them many games which they don’t know how to play. The students were so nice and encouraging last day I told them bye with happy faces and also some of them took number of mine and told me to be in contact with me and soon come again back. It was a very enthusiastic experience of mine will miss these memorable moments.

My experience in TRISHUL was a good. I taught the English words which were difficult for them to understand and also explain them the meaning of it. Dictation words from the story was taken by me. I also explained them opposite words and made them write it down. There were few children in my group of students were cute and understanding. Math also was taught to the 2nd standard children like addition, subtraction by drawing the item and telling them to count and add them. I played with them various games like business, scrabble, and board games like crossword were also played. On our last day of volunteering after the games we bought for them snacks and soft drinks they were enjoying it in the end the head of the NGO visited us and gave us the certificates and we told them bye with happy faces.
