Dedicated gender-inclusive programmes building women's leadership, livelihoods, financial independence and agency in cotton-farming communities.
Women perform 60–80% of cotton farm labour yet remain systematically excluded from training, markets and decision-making. CG Foundation's gender solutions are integrated into every programme — not as an add-on but as a fundamental design principle.
