The Solar Warriors of Bhutan
This is a true story about rural women of Bhutan. This is about very simple women in Bhutan who have made an extraordinary difference to their own communities.The rural women have shown tremendous courage and left their husbands, children behind to come to Tilonia, a small remote village in Rajasthan India. They have come to be trained in 6 months to be solar engineers.
What makes this approach unique is that after the training no certificates or diplomas are given. The certification should be done by the community themselves. after 6 months training these women will be known as SOLAR ENGINEERS.
