ARD is working in the field of community development through the empowerment of women in Bihar, India.

Self Help Groups are integral to all ARD programmes and assist the women to become aware of their rights and to be able to speak up for those rights. Together with micro-finance initiatives to support Income Generating Activities, the women are building a basis to improve their socio-economic status in the family and community.

There are currently over 4,000 women from 85 villages in more than 300 Self Help Groups.
