Leaving No Girl or Woman Behind I EdelGive Foundation

EdelGive is committed to addressing both social and economic inequalities that prevent women and girls from achieving their full potential. We work with our NGO partners (pan India), who are focusing on five key priority areas.

A. Freedom from Violence and Discrimination: We look at life cycle approach to violence and discrimination, and identify impactful models focussing towards creating awareness amongst communities and stakeholders. This approach assists in creating an enabling environment which will aid towards uplifting of women’s status in society, and thereby contribute towards building an egalitarian society.

B. Access to Legal Justice: We work to ensure accountability of relevant authorities for justice delivery to survivors of violence. Our partner NGOs provide legal aid and support to women survivors whose rights have been denied.

C. Grassroots Leadership: EdelGive supports programs that focus on increasing women and girls leadership abilities, (particularly those working at the grassroots level) so as to challenge harmful social norms, and to advocate for progressive and equitable policy and laws in the society.

D. Access to Rights and Entitlements: We support organisations working on creating awareness among communities, and collectivising of women’s groups to avail and access their rights and entitlements.

E. Freedom from Economic Dependence: We believe that investing in women’s economic empowerment leads to gender equality and inclusive economic growth, and therefore we support programs that increases women’s entrepreneurial and income generation abilities so that they could contribute effectively towards nation building.
