Give women equal share in the budget with me



I am impacting women in cantonment areas of Pune district in Maharashtra state by empowering them with access to a gender-friendly budget and a special provision fund for women and children. People living in cantonment areas are economically neglected as they are not entitled to the facilities enjoyed by currently employed army personnel. I am building leadership skills in cantonment women to take collective action for claiming their economic rights under the state budget.
