This transformation has been made possible by ‘Aqua School’, a unique initiative of Transform Rura India (TRI), which aims to empower women farmers.

According to an official release, through these ‘Aqua Schools’, TRI’s main objective is to revolutionize fish farming practices, increase productivity within the sector and promote aquaculture.

The initiative also includes extensive capacity building programmes, where women farmers receive access to ponds and technical assistance from TRI facilitators. Subsequent training in aqua schools equips them with the necessary skills in fisheries management.
