In the challenging scenario in which the girls from rural marginalized communities live -empowerment is a process of change- a personal journey through which the girls get a better understanding of themselves, increasing agency (ability to make choices that will impact their lives) and assets (e.g.  physical and mental assets, social networks, financial  assets, skills, time)

This transformative journey is guided and supported by Aahan’s holistic approach involving education and skills development, capacity and agency building, creating assets such as a resilient girl network, and physical and mental toughness.
