Mahila Housing SEWA Trust

Mahila Housing SEWA Trust (MHT) was established by Self Employed Women Association (SEWA) in 1994 with the overall objective of improving the housing and infrastructure conditions of poor women in the informal sector. Within this general framework, MHT facilitates access to services such as shelter finance, legal advice, technical assistance, information on the housing market, and shelter-related income opportunities for poor working women. Through its advocacy activities, MHT also attempts to influence housing and infrastructure related urban and rural development policies and programs to meet the needs of its membership.
