How did the gender empowerment project originate?
The need for low-priced documentation it was absurd to disseminate the low-cost approach through high-cost publications!! led to the idea of training socially challenged women in Desk Top Publication (DTP). This programme acquired an independent identity after the informal trial was followed by the infoDev/World Bank sponsored Project SITA (Studies in Information Technology Applications: Computer-skill training programme for socially disabled women).
