"Women's work used to be of no value. A man could just wander around all day doing nothing and it wouldn't matter. But no matter how much hard work we women did, it's as if we didn't exist. Now, we get our pay and we are respected. Our lives have improved, and we feel like we have been born again….. It has been hard work but we have accomplished a lot."

- Gauriben, leader of Barara village water committee
