Our Mission
Why We Exist
"Working for the empowerment of the poor and underprivileged, with a special focus on women and children, Shramik Bharti facilitates and fosters peoples' democratic institutions."
Committed to a human development approach, Shramik Bharti strives to enlarge people's choices by assisting them in the development of their capabilities and preparing them to have better control over their lives.
Shramik Bharti is, therefore, a way of seeing and respecting people. Our programmes grow out of that respect. We have faith in the idea of a truly democratic society, free from exploitation.
