Informal childcare centers have sprung up to meet demand as in informal settlements, yet only 9% receive any external support and only 20% have had any training on early childhood development: see our cross-sectional study in two Nairobi slums APHRC frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

We are happy to share that our new website is up and running! Visit our website uhrc.in/uhrc/ to follow our work on improving health and well-being in slums of Indore, Agra and North-East Delhi.

Most women who pursue this training are school dropouts. Independently managing group finances is a crucial skill which can nurture leadership and competence among women's collectives.
