Problem Statement
Rural girls face high risks of sexual violence, early marriage, and discrimination. Those who drop out of school lack skills for economic independence, perpetuating a cycle of poverty and abuse.

Expected Impact
Economic independence for young women through entrepreneurship. Enhanced protection from violence and greater awareness of sexual rights. Creation of a supportive network for survivors.
