Development of women and children in Rural Areas (DWCRA)
Development of women and children in Rural Areas (DWCRA) was launched as a sub scheme of IRDP during the year 1982-83 in 50 districts. It subsequently extended to cover all the districts in the country by 1994-95. The flow of benefits to poor women, in spite of reservation, under various poverty alleviation programmes viz. IRDP and TRYSEM were found to be not making much impact. Therefore, in order to overcome this situation and to involve the rural women more intensely in economic activities and matters that concerns the rural community. One of the initiatives taken by this ministry was the introduction of an exclusive programme for women viz. Development of women & children in rural areas. DWCRA with exclusive focus on economic empowerment of women provides all these inputs by considering women as critical to development. This intervention aims at not only raising the incomes of rural women of poor households, but also enabling organized participation of groups of women provides all these inputs by considering women as critical to development: also enabling organized participation of groups of women in the programmes of credit, skill training and infrastructure support for self-employment. DWCRA was introduced for ensuring that the benefits of IRDP reach to women directly. The programme seeks to improve the access of rural women to health, education, safe drinking water, sanitation, nutrition etc; thereby bringing about an enhancement in the quality of general well being of women & children.
Strategy
The basic unit under DWCRA is a group of 10-15 poor women who have come together to help each other in order to use their collective strength to break social bonds that have denied them income generating and self-fulfilling opportunities. The group size may be smaller in difficult terrain and far-flung areas. One woman amongst the members functions as the group organizer who helps in the choice of activity, procurement of raw material, marketing of products. Before undertaking the activities women were made aware of the objectives and benefits of group information under the scheme; undertaking their potential and recognizing their strength. At the operational level inputs/coaching for such an exercise by the group is given by gram sevika for a period of two years, who not only creates a group but also nurtures the group and orients them in availing of benefits of various other programmes/schemes.
