Habitat for Humanity India, in partnership with Standard Chartered Bank, through phase 2 of its “Empowering Women and Improving Life through Livelihood Interventions” project has supported 1104 women in Odisha and Maharashtra by offering them essential skills, financial support and access to markets. Many of these women are also Habitat homeowners and together, housing support and livelihood opportunities are helping them build stronger, more secure lives. In the first phase of the project, 969 women in Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, and Odisha were provided with livelihood opportunities, helping them achieve greater financial independence.

Through Self-Help Groups, they are now running small and micro enterprises, from paper plate units to coir crafting. The income they earn is not just supporting their households; it is transforming their families’ futures by enabling children’s education, improving access to healthcare and strengthening overall well-being.

Watch the video to witness how women share their own stories of new identities, financial independence, dignity and the joy of being able to dream for themselves and their families.
