CFTI Advocates Safe School Mobility for Rural Girls
On National Girl Child Day, an organization called CFTI talked about how important it is for girls in rural areas to have safe ways to go to school.
Since 2020, they have been working to help girls by giving them bicycles, teaching them self-defence, and making sure they are safe.
This helps girls stay in school and makes their families feel better about their safety.
CFTI wants more people to pay attention to this issue so that more girls can go to school without worrying about their safety.
CFTI, a NITI Aayog-recognized non-profit, highlights safe school mobility for rural girls on National Girl Child Day.
The organization has been working since 2020 in areas like education, women's empowerment, and rural infrastructure.
CFTI's campaign, Savitrichya Leki Chalalya Pudhe, provides bicycles, self-defence training, and local follow-ups to ensure girls' safety.
Improving school mobility aims to reduce dropouts and boost confidence among girls and their families.
CFTI seeks to draw wider attention to practical solutions for better education outcomes for girls in rural India.
