Empowerment in Action: The Art of Living’s Women’s Programs Transform Lives
The Art of Living, led by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, is making significant strides in empowering women through transformative initiatives across India. These programs, designed to foster gender equality and women’s welfare, aim to create sustainable solutions and community engagement.
Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar emphasizes the pivotal role of women in societal development, stating, “The role of women determines whether a society is strong and harmonious.” This vision drives initiatives like economic independence programs, girl child education, health awareness, leadership training, and rural skill development.
Highlighting the impact of these efforts, Pooja from Uttar Pradesh exemplifies success. After completing The Art of Living’s beautician course, she now operates a thriving beauty parlour, enhancing her financial stability and community standing.
The organization’s initiatives extend to health and hygiene awareness through Project Pavitra, leadership skills with the Women Youth Leadership Training Program, and rehabilitation support for women in correctional facilities. These efforts have educated thousands on menstrual hygiene, trained rural women in livelihood skills, and united communities for environmental conservation.
With a robust focus on empowerment and inclusivity, The Art of Living continues to empower women, amplify their voices, and foster positive societal change nationwide.
