Har Kadam Beti Ke Sang 2025

Financial Literacy Ki Aur Badhe Hum

The sixth edition of #HarKadamBetiKeSang focuses on financial literacy as a core life skill that helps adolescents make informed choices and shape their futures. In a world where financial understanding means opportunity and independence, many girls still lack access to this essential knowledge.

Through this campaign, Room to Read India’s Girls’ Education Program is creating spaces for adolescents to learn about money, challenge gender norms, and take part in decisions that shape their lives.

To be held from November 11 to November 18 across eight states — Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Delhi, Maharashtra, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh — the campaign brings together adolescents, parents, teachers and communities through interactive learning and dialogue. By making financial literacy part of everyday life, it aims to build confidence, independence, and equal opportunity for every girl and boy.

Kishori/Kishor Mela

One of the most awaited activities of the campaign, Kishori Mela is an empowering, youth-led celebration that highlights adolescents as active participants in shaping their futures. Organized by and for adolescents within their schools, it will take place on November 14 across eight states under the Girls’ Education Program Campaign.

Now in its sixth edition, #HarKadamBetiKeSang focuses on financial literacy as a core life skill, reinforcing how understanding money builds confidence, independence and equality. Kishori Mela provides adolescents a platform to express their ideas, share experiences and participate in creative activities that promote learning about financial decision-making and gender equality.
