Abstract

Self-Help Groups (SHGs) have emerged as popular method of working with people in recent years. Since SHG based micro finance programs cover a large number of women, it is expected that such programmers will have an important bearing on women’s empowerment. Women empowerment is a process in which women challenge the existing norms and culture to effectively promote their wellbeing. Micro finance and SHGs are effective in reducing poverty, empowering women, creating awareness and ensure sustainability of environment which finally results in sustainable development of the nation.
