Self-Help Groups for UPSC IAS
  • Self-Help Groups (SHG) are small informal groups of 10-20 individuals, mostly women from similar social and economic backgrounds.
  • They come together to form a group for mutual support and help.
  • SHGs encourage members to save regularly, and these savings are then pooled to provide loans to members for various purposes such as starting a small business, paying for their children’s education or medical expenses, etc.
