Adult Literacy in Meghalaya, India : Impact of Saakshar Bharat Programme for Women

In the recent past due to various programmatic interventions in the area of adult literacy there is an increased emphasis on monitoring and evaluation of such programme in India and elsewhere. In the present research work an effort is made to understand how far had the 'Saakshar Bharat Mission' of Government of India lead towards women's literacy in the State of Meghalaya, India and how effective and functional are the literacy programmes offered by the adult learning centers. The evaluative project report while pitch some new insights into the working of adult education programme will also be useful for professionals working in the field of adult literacy programmes.
