Watershed Development ITC's watershed initiatives have led to an improvement in soil and moisture regimes-there is more land under irrigation, water tables have risen and farmers can harvest more than one crop, making it possible to live off the land round the year.
Women's Empowerment The confidence and skills generated among women by forming credit groups and managing businesses become assets to their communities
Livestock Development The milk marketing co-operatives represents exemplary change in rural enterprise, away from dependence on agriculture and local markets
Primary Education School going becomes an empowering process for the child and the community. The awareness of entitlements like education and health grows, along with a sense of the community's responsibility.
