Gender Equality

Gender equality is fundamental to achieving a just and equitable society. SuryaKala is committed to promoting gender equality by empowering women and girls, addressing gender-based discrimination, and advocating for equal opportunities in all aspects of life.

Why Promote Gender Equality in Sitamarhi

In many parts of rural India, including Sitamarhi, gender inequality is deeply rooted in cultural norms and practices. Women and girls often face discrimination, limited access to education and healthcare, and lack of economic opportunities. SuryaKala aims to challenge these barriers and create an environment where everyone, regardless of gender, has the chance to thrive.


What We Do


SuryaKala’s gender equality initiatives focus on education, economic empowerment, health, and advocacy. We work with local communities to promote gender-sensitive practices and ensure that women and girls can reach their full potential.

Education is a powerful tool for achieving gender equality. SuryaKala runs educational programs that focus on increasing enrollment and retention rates for girls in schools. We provide scholarships, school supplies, and support for girls to pursue higher education. Additionally, we conduct gender sensitivity training for teachers and students to foster an inclusive and supportive learning environment.

Economic independence is crucial for women’s empowerment. SuryaKala offers vocational training and entrepreneurship programs to help women acquire skills and start their own businesses. We provide microloans and support women’s self-help groups to create sustainable economic opportunities. By enabling women to earn their own income, we help them gain financial independence and improve their social status.

Access to healthcare is essential for gender equality. SuryaKala conducts health camps and awareness programs focused on women’s health issues, including reproductive health, maternal care, and nutrition. We also provide sanitary products and promote menstrual hygiene management to ensure that women and girls can maintain their health and dignity.

Changing societal attitudes towards gender roles requires community engagement. SuryaKala works with local leaders, men’s groups, and youth organizations to challenge gender stereotypes and promote equality. We organize workshops and campaigns to raise awareness about gender rights and the importance of equality. Through advocacy efforts, we push for policies and laws that support gender equality and protect women’s rights.

Encouraging women to take on leadership roles is vital for achieving gender equality. SuryaKala supports leadership development programs that empower women to participate in decision-making processes at the community and local government levels. We provide training and mentorship to help women build confidence and leadership skills.

By focusing on these comprehensive interventions, SuryaKala is dedicated to promoting gender equality in Sitamarhi and beyond. We believe that by empowering women and girls, challenging discriminatory practices, and advocating for equal opportunities, we can build a more just and equitable society for everyone.

End Discrimination Against Women and Girls

We are committed to ending all forms of discrimination against women and girls everywhere. By promoting equality and ensuring that women and girls have the same opportunities as men, we strive to create a more just and inclusive society.

End Violence Against and Exploitation of Women and Girls

Our goal is to eliminate all forms of violence against women and girls, both in public and private spheres. This includes tackling issues such as trafficking, sexual exploitation, and other types of abuse.

Eliminate Forced Marriages and Genital Mutilation

We work to eradicate harmful practices such as child, early, and forced marriages, as well as female genital mutilation. These practices violate human rights and hinder the health and development of women and girls.

Value Unpaid Care and Promote Shared Domestic Responsibilities

We recognize and value unpaid care and domestic work. Through public services, infrastructure, and social protection policies, we promote shared responsibility within households and families, ensuring that this work is acknowledged and fairly distributed.

Ensure Full Participation in Leadership and Decision-Making

We strive to ensure women’s full and effective participation in leadership and decision-making processes at all levels of political, economic, and public life. Equal opportunities for leadership empower women and contribute to more balanced and representative decision-making.

Universal Access to Reproductive Health and Rights

We advocate for universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights. This aligns with the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development, the Beijing Platform for Action, and their subsequent review outcomes.

Equal Rights to Economic Resources, Property Ownership, and Financial Services

We support reforms that grant women equal rights to economic resources. This includes access to ownership and control over land, property, financial services, inheritance, and natural resources, in accordance with national laws.

Promote Empowerment of Women Through Technology

We enhance the use of enabling technologies, particularly information and communications technology, to empower women. Access to technology provides women with new opportunities for education, employment, and social engagement.

Adopt and Strengthen Policies and Enforceable Legislation for Gender Equality

We advocate for the adoption and strengthening of policies and legislation that promote gender equality. Enforceable laws are essential for protecting the rights of women and girls and ensuring their empowerment at all levels of society.

Promoting Equality Across All Castes, Religions, and Genders

End Discrimination Based on Caste

We work towards eliminating discrimination based on caste, ensuring equal opportunities and rights for individuals from all castes. Our programs focus on breaking down caste barriers and promoting social inclusion.

End Discrimination Based on Religion

We strive to end religious discrimination, fostering an environment of mutual respect and understanding. Our initiatives encourage interfaith dialogue and cooperation to build a harmonious and inclusive society.

Support for Third Gender Rights

We are dedicated to supporting the rights and inclusion of the third gender. Our efforts aim to eliminate discrimination against third-gender individuals and promote their full participation in all aspects of life.

By addressing these key areas, we aim to create a world where gender equality is a reality, and every woman and girl, regardless of caste, religion, or gender identity, can achieve her full potential.
