Signature Programme:
In Trichy Thottiam, Gomathi (Valaipoo Thokku), and Thamilselvi from Thanjavur (Fabrication of coir bags) had financially struggled a lot to run her family and they participated in 'unnal mudiyum pennae' programme. The programme not only enabled these women to get new livelihoods ideas, but also to get the support from the PTBI, and now they become women entrepreneurs. In Rayamundanpatti, Srinivasan Adiseshhan (Amala Product ), has also become an entrepreneur. The impact of this programme, though focused on women, has motivated men to also take up new enterprises for their livelihoods and is our most popular programme.

Community media is any form of media that is created and controlled by a community, either a geographic community or a community of identity or interest. However, if the fundamental premise of the media is to engage those groups that are categorically excluded and marginalized from the media-making process, it will be included on this website, even if it is not explicitly created and controlled by the community.
