Vriddhi . Accelerating Impact

Vriddhi offers services that accelerate the process of change for marginalized communities, particularly women farmers in tribal pockets of Central India. We believe that process of change can be accelerated by the community and those working with them. This happens when we create opportunities for re-examining assumptions, for learning from and with each other, for inspiring and amplifying positive experiences. It needs to be supported by services that reduce risk and make adoption of new approaches hassle free. It needs the place of women in agriculture to change from labor to that of leadership. Our services are designed to unleash this potential – to accelerate impact.
