Jeevika is a comprehensive project implemented by Bihar Rural Livelihoods Promotion Society (BRLPS) as an initiative of the Government of Bihar for poverty alleviation. It aims to reduce poverty through various means such as skill development, access to finance, capacity building, market linkages, social mobility and providing opportunities for collective decision making. Through self-help groups, Jeevika helps women improve their social status, achieve economic independence, and participate more actively in decision-making processes within their communities. Jeevika remains steadfast in its commitment to the betterment of rural Bihar, and its journey is a testament to the power of collective action and sustainable development. As such the present paper examines the role of Jeevika in its various schemes in empowering rural women of Bihar. The paper is based on secondary sources of data and finds that despite hurdles Jeevika Didis have shown promise. – Reproduced
