A grassroots institution that impacts lives
SEWA contributes to the empowerment of small-scale and marginalized women farmers and informal sector workers in India through its grassroots advocacy, social mobilization and socio-economic services through a strong network of partners.
Through a holistic approach, FAO aims to leverage its expertise in strengthening rural institutions, facilitating farmer-to-farmer knowledge generation, and building producer organizational capacities to support SEWA to proactively increase their role and contribution to reducing food insecurity and empowering rural women at the local, national, and international levels.
