The Needs
Basic education and income generation skills have been found to empower the women folk towards a reasonable degree of self reliance. The pressing needs of the programme revolve around this target. The remarkable aspect of this form of "paying-back to the community" is that the students not only render their service but also financially meet over 80% of the annual budgetary needs of the department. We are striving hard to accomplish an appropriate recognition of the service of the students and the Extension Faculty by the UGC and/or the Union Ministry of HRD. The efforts continue in this direction while the students of St. Joseph's carry forward the service silently. For SHEPHERD is not just about the students - it is the combined label given to the three communities - a 48000 - strong rural community of awakened people, a 5000-strong community of committed students and a 350-strong community of dedicated Jesuits and Professors. |
