Lila Poonawalla Foundation (LPF) is an
Educational Trust in India with a vision
to contribute to the empowerment of Indian
women by supporting academically
outstanding and financially challenged girls,
through Scholarship to pursue higher
education.
3. State of Education of Girls in India
• India has one of the lowest female literacy rate in the world with
over 200 million illiterate women.
• Only 4.5% of India’s population has access to college education
and only 1% of which are women.
• Percentage of women getting higher education from rural areas
is much lower than urban areas.
• Most working women employed in agricultural and informal
sectors and very few in highly skilled professions.
4. Barriers in Education of Girls
• Socio-cultural barriers in Indian society
• ‘Patriarchial Society’ focuses on ‘male heir’ and considers women to be
‘dead investment’ as she is supposed to be married off.
• Perception - Drain on family resources due to dowry
• Engagements of girl children in domestic work & farm work.
• Norms of early marriage restrict girls from pursuing college education.
• Pursuing post graduation studies and chalking out a successful career
remains a distant dream for many
5. Education leads to Empowerment
“The whole purpose of education
is to turn mirrors into windows.”
• Education is an undisputed tool of empowerment
• Education plays an important role in shaping and flourishing the
capacities of girls at an individual level.
• It enables her to gain more knowledge about the world and helps to
reclaim her space in social life. It gives her a voice, a tool to get status,
self esteem and inner strength to face challenges in life.
• With education, a girl gains increased level of articulation, economic
independence, knowledge and awareness about health, nutrition,
reproductive rights, law and literacy.
6. Lila Poonawalla : Pioneer of the foundation
Coming from a difficult background, she rose to great heights in her
career due to sheer determination and hard work.
"I learnt to stand up for myself and for my rights. I
learnt how to be a fighter and not to quit even in a
male-dominated household…… We were not very well-
off then. And although my brothers had to take up a job
to support the family, my mother impressed upon me,
never to compromise on my education.“
"I want to motivate women to step into the
world with confidence and encourage them to
meet the challenges."
