Sudhi
Work area: Jhalawar district, Rajasthan
Sudhi, fresh from an Udaipur University MSW degree, came to Hum Kisan in 1996 as a part of her first placement. Social work was not new to her as her mother had been the Director of Shramik Vidyapeeth (an institution for adult education) in Ajmer. She and Devendra got married in 1997 and have since been working together, starting a community school, Manthan in 2001 and a Handloom Cooperative, Adarsh Hathkargha Sahkari Samiti in 2004. They have been SRUTI Fellows since 1998. Each of the initiatives that Devendra and Sudhi have undertaken is a response to an important need of the local people beset by poverty, exploitation, illiteracy and superstitions. With every effort their aim has been to create a more aware, equitable and progressive society.
