The target group Adolescent Girls, Widows and Women are drawn from the lower strait of the society where influenced people are dominating and ruling them since the ages together. Poverty is the main drawback found in almost all the families where the unemployment and seasonal income do not satisfying their livelihood requirements. Sometimes they are migrating to some other places in searching of work for their daily bread. Their deriving income do not used for the production purpose,
The Proposed Project will be implemented in 5 slum areas of Kurnool Rural and urban of Kurnool District in Andhra Pradesh State. Slum dwellers are from remote villages migrated to Kurnool Rural for want of work. Their villages are remotely situated on small hill ranges often affected by drought and famine. The target project groups are poor and illiterate widows and women living in sub standard slums on outskirts of Kurnool surroundings thus despised and isolated from the Society.
Therefore, there is a need for CORUS Organisation to introduce skills training to rehabilitate suffering women's economic status by organizing and providing Tailoring training and alternate employment opportunity for the empowerment of women in these places. The proposed Tailoring Training is a great opportunity to the poor women both married and unmarried to earn their livelihood if they successfully complete the Training. There are 30 members in each Batch and total 360 women will be trained.
After completion of the Tailoring Training Program for Adolescent Girls and Widows it is expected that 40-50 % increase in income is likely to result because of project interventions. Financial: Exact financial benefits and analysis will be done through impact evaluation. Economic: The poor, economic liability would be transformed into economic assets. It can safely be assumed that the program shall enable at least 155 women/ girls (one per household) to be employed/ self employed.
