Abstract:
The Self Employed Women’s Association (SEWA) in India began by running childcare centres for women working in the informal sector, who needed centres that flexibly met their needs. It shifted from simply providing a valuable service to women, to focusing on high quality childcare; and the programme has expanded rapidly in reaction to massive demand while still holding quality. This article discusses techniques and tools that have been and are being developed and employed as SEWA – a strong, well
established and effective organisation – has used the Effectiveness Initiative (EI) and its processes to improve its approaches and operations.
