Shri
Mahila SEWA Anasooya Trust
SEWA has been using
communication services as a means of bringing the reality, concerns
and struggles of poor women into the mainstream of society. In
addition, communication services are required by self-employed
workers to facilitate sharing of experiences, enhance organising
and strengthen their movement. Through these services, women learn
of each others concerns, struggles and strategies.
One such medium
of communication is our fortnightly magazine ‘Anasooya’.
It communicates the experiences of workers and their organisations
to the outside world in Gujarati.
In order to consolidate and strengthen
‘Anasooya’s efforts to promote women’s development,
Shri Mahila Anasooya Trust was established in 1996. The Trust
produces publications on issues concerned with women workers.
It also promotes local and folk media, booklets, posters and video
films. In addition, workers obtain training in these various communication
media.
