VISION
They envision a future in India where women and girls are fully empowered and enabled to realize their rights, opportunities and achieve gender equality.
MISSION
They equip, mobilize, educate and empower women and girls to achieve gender equality.
Centre for Catalyzing Change is committed to women’s equal participation in governance and leadership roles as a step towards building a stronger nation. Reflecting local values and needs, they partner with communities to raise women’s voices and mobilize for better public policies and programs to increase women’s political participation. Believing that a larger role for women will lead to empowered, healthier societies, they work to increase leadership roles for women within their families and communities. They provide training to women to help them take leadership roles better and they involve men and youth in supporting women’s voices. In this effort, Centre for Catalyzing Change is building capacities of elected women panchayat representatives to spearhead change. These representatives are trained and supported to address gender inequities, and to ensure monitor delivery of health and education services.
They also work to increase understanding of the risk and protective factors underlying violence against women, including domestic violence to reduce the incidence of violence and the perceived threat among women and girls. Based on its past decades of experience of strengthening women leadership, they work to build capacities of women in leadership position in civil societies. Women supported by Centre for Catalyzing Change are taking on leadership roles in promoting family planning, ensuring birth preparedness, guiding adolescents, providing community based services and increasing awareness.
