They will instantly receive a comprehensive learning guide with modules on each topic, which will help to strengthen business skills and unlock the true potential of women entrepreneurs, empowering them with greater self-reliance, power and freedom over their businesses and lives. Commenting on the launch of the chatbot, Shivnath Thukral, Director, of Public Policy India, Meta, said, “WhatsApp has been at the forefront of delivering innovative technology solutions that have the potential to power social impact in the country and we’re proud to support Mann Deshi in its efforts to educate and empower women across rural Maharashtra.
