Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Since the conception of Self Help Group (SHG) movement in Mizoram in 2003, the State has its share of success stories. This is a case study of an all women member SHG of Shiphir town in Aizawl District. The name of the SHG is “Changkang tum Pawl” which translated means “Aiming for Progress”. Formed in 2003, there were 15 members initially; they are presently functioning strongly as ever with 12 members. The study aimed to investigate the role of SHG in empowerment of its members and enabling development in their community. The case study shows that participation in SHG leads to social, economic and political empowerment of its members. The group has shown exemplary effort in giving assistance to their members in time of dire needs and they also provide basic services for their locality. Thus, the case study shows that the benefit from SHGs need not confine only to its members, it can be used as a powerful tool for enabling development of the community.
