Rejuvenate India Movement

RIM's flagship program, grounded in the belief that within every community, there are individuals motivated to volunteer their time for positive change, is known as the Samaj Shilpi initiative. These village volunteers, referred to as Samaj Shilpis, are identified and trained by RIM in various government schemes and programs, as well as in guiding villagers on accessing them. All Samaj Shilpis possess digital literacy, understanding the online application processes crucial for numerous government initiatives. Villagers reach out to Samaj Shilpis for information on eligible schemes and receive assistance in the application process.

The promotion of Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) is essential for upholding the dignity of women and girls, and it should be an integral component of basic public health services accessible to every woman and girl as a fundamental right. MHM intersects with various vulnerabilities and sectors.

In contrast to many MHM initiatives primarily focusing on the provision of disposable absorbents, RIM emphasizes educating women and girls, enabling them to make informed choices for sustainable menstrual management. Our goal is to cultivate an environment where menstruation is openly discussed without fear, shame, or hesitation.

We provide training to women on crafting their own cloth pads and assist in establishing reusable cloth pad-making units in rural areas.
