Nav Srishti's Back to School initiative is designed especially for these kids, offering them an equitable chance to reintegrate into the regular school system. These kids are from the most disadvantaged groups in Delhi: the migrant and informal labourer communities living in the slums of Neb Sarai, Faridabad, and Nangloi. Since adolescent girls in the same community must surmount additional obstacles based on their gender to access the same opportunities, we are particularly focused on empowering them.

With a unique approach that blends community engagement in groups with a dispute resolution procedure, Nav Srishti is helping the Delhi Commission for Women execute its "Mahila Panchayat" programme. Women from the most vulnerable communities—those with a high incidence of documented violence against women—are singled out and urged to join the Panchayat. The topics covered in the training include legal concerns, conflict resolution, legislation and issues connected to crime against women, property rights, maintenance, marriage, child custody, counselling, filing a formal complaint, pursuing with the police, etc. Nav Srishti is in charge of three Mahila Panchayats: Nangloi, Holambi Kalan, and Bharola.
