  • Since

    2008

Sakha Consulting Wings is a social enterprise that offers secure transportation solutions for women by women in four Indian cities. Beyond providing e Read moremployment opportunities as professional taxi drivers and chauffeurs, the organisation contributes to a larger movement for women's empowerment and gender equality. Despite initial doubts, its women drivers have successfully challenged stereotypes and demonstrated gender equality in action. Established in 2008, Sakha's journey has overcome scepticism to create a fleet of women-driven cabs and professional female chauffeurs. This initiative not only offers safe transportation but also represents a broader societal shift. While the organisation has made strides, it acknowledges that significant challenges remain in India's workforce participation for women. Partnering with Azad Foundation and other organisations, Sakha trains marginalized women in driving and chauffeuring, creating a unique model that empowers them with skills and meaningful employment. This collaboration strives to transform lives and contribute to the betterment of women's roles in Indian society.
