| Low female labour force participation rate remains a pressing concern in India, with less than 30 percent of women in rural areas engaged in productive work, paid or unpaid. Under the Swashakt evidence programme, the International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie) is funding the implementation of a series of projects that support collectives and group-based models for women-led businesses, including non-farm and service enterprises that are operating in partnership with state rural livelihood missions. LEAD at Krea University has been chosen as the grants management partner for the evidence programme. As part of this initiative, LEAD will work closely with the 3ie team for the review and management of implementation grants funded under the programme. Click here for more details. |
