Saving is the main aspect of Self Help Groups however the village women were not trained for it. So Uttan CCO organised a
financial training program for Sudershan SHG (Karaipada) on 7th Jan 16, around nine women took part in this training program.
The
financial literacy has three modules I, II and III, the main basic concept of
it was Importance of saving, Importance of Budgeting and planning. The topics
covered with the group were about saving and its importance, the importance of Budget which included the identified current spending habits, analysed daily expenditure,
and explained the difference between needs and wants, relation between budget
and saving. Then financial planning included the essential and non essential expenses,
financial planning and how to reduce the expense.
The
women really gained from this training program and there was a good
response from women for all the three modules. The training sessions were interactive and interesting. The
women raised many questions regarding savings and they expressed
how it was difficult to them earlier. Finally they assured that they will do good
saving in coming days.
