Dheeram Project

Context:

The Ernakulam District Kudumbashree Mission is set to roll out ‘Dheeram’, a project aimed at imparting martial arts based self defence training to women, at two gender resource centres.

About Dheeram Project:

Two women master trainers will impart training to 30 women aged between 18 and 35 years.
200 hour training will be imparted to the women across a year.
The idea is to instil self confidence among women.
The women will also have the opportunity to offer martial arts training under the Kudumbashree Mission thus turning their skills into an income generation source.

Kudumbashree:

Kudumbashree is the poverty eradication and women empowerment programme implemented by the State Poverty Eradication Mission (SPEM) of the Government of Kerala set up in 1997.
The name Kudumbashree in Malayalam language means ‘prosperity of the family’.
The name represents ‘Kudumbashree Mission’ or SPEM as well as the Kudumbashree Community Network.
Its formation was in the context of the devolution of powers to the Panchayat Raj Institutions (PRIs) in Kerala.
In 2011, the Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD), Government of India recognised Kudumbashree as the State Rural Livelihoods Mission (SRLM) under the National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM).
