About

At eSaheli Mahila Vikas Foundation (EMVF), our vision is to create a transformative shift in India’s socio-economic landscape by enabling every woman — regardless of caste, geography, income level, or education — to become financially self-sufficient. We believe that empowering women at the grassroots level with practical skills and tools for self-reliance can serve as the foundation for sustainable community development. Our vision is deeply rooted in the belief that when women are economically independent, they are more likely to invest in their families, educate their children, and participate in civic life, contributing to a more equitable and progressive society.

According to a 2021 report by the McKinsey Global Institute, India could add $770 billion to its GDP by 2025 by advancing gender equality. Yet, female labor force participation remains alarmingly low, especially in rural areas, where social norms and structural barriers hinder women’s entry into the workforce. At EMVF, we aim to change this narrative through a digital-first approach that addresses the root causes of inequality — lack of access to affordable skill education, minimal mobility, and social restrictions. By bringing learning to a woman’s fingertips, we eliminate dependency and drive transformation from within communities.

Our long-term vision is to reach and empower at least 10 lakh women across India in the next five years, starting with Tier 2, Tier 3, and rural belts of Maharashtra and gradually scaling nationwide. We don’t just see this as an educational initiative — we view it as a grassroots revolution that uplifts families, builds micro-economies, and strengthens the nation’s economic fabric one empowered woman at a time.
