Gender equality is an important step towards sustainable development and ensuring basic human rights for everyone. With this in mind, Kutchina Foundation launched the ‘Krittika Centre for Women Empowerment’. Founded by Namit Bajoria, this was formed out of concern for the need to care for the marginalized.

Krittika Centre for Women Empowerment will aim to showcase the works of Kutchina Krittika fellows located from Dimapur to Jaipur working across ten locations on eight thematic providing to more than ten thousand beneficiaries mostly women and children. This Centre is also dedicated to credible organizations working on women empowerment for showcasing their work, exchange ideas and activities with people at large.

Speaking on the occasion Ms. Chandrima Bhattacharya, Minister of State for Urban Development & Municipal Affairs, Health & Family Welfare, Land and Reforms, Refugee and Rehabilitation of the Government of West Bengal said that women empowerment is very much needed in today’s times.

A great initiative from Kutchina during these dire times.
