RIDA stands for “Required Initiatives for
Daughter’s Access”. Under this program TNW
takes need based initiatives for the girls to provide
them services at their door step which are essential
for their educational, vocational and health related
requirements.
RIDA Mahnisayal ( a case study)
Mahnisyal is a village between khanewal and Multan with
population over 25000. For girls, there are educational
facilities but maximum up to matriculation level. After
matriculation only affording families can send their daughters
to the cities for getting higher education while poor girls sit at
home although having talent and hope in their mind. Feeling
the need, TNW with participation of local stakeholders took
initiatives and arranged RIDA center to provide these
daughters an opportunity to continue their educational
journey in their reach with standard but affordable.
Here 90 girls are getting education above matriculation level.
Some of these are those girls who have restarted their
education as they had terminated the process after completing
10th class a few years back due to unavailability of local facility
and resources to move to nearby cities for this purpose.
