SHG movement takes firm grip in Nagaland

2024-06-20

KOHIMA: A local detergent product, made by a women’s self-help group, has evoked great response in Nagaland encouraging many other SHGs to emulate their success story.

The detergent powder, cheaper than some popular brands of consumer majors and largely popular, is made by a self help group (SHG) in a village near Dimapur with caustic soda and other locally available materials.

Initiated by a few Naga women activists ‘Women Ahead’ is now transforming many homes and families in rural Nagaland.

Started in August 2006 with the motto of growth, Women Ahead is a network of over 60 SHGs spreading across Kohima, Dimapur and Peren districts in the state and intends to start its work in Mokokchung district within this year.
