Kudumbashree is essentially a community network that covers the entire State of Kerala. It consists of a three tier structure with Neighbourhood Groups (NHGs) as primary level units, Area Development Societies (ADS) at the ward level, and Community Development Societies (CDS) at the local government level. It is arguably one of the largest women’s networks in the world. While the community network is formed around the central themes of poverty eradication and women empowerment, its main features include democratic leadership, and support structures formed from the ‘Kudumbashree family’. The Post Graduate Department of Commerce has initiated a helping hand to the Kudumbasree of Edathala Grama Panchayath by providing them a space for a stall at Al – Ameen College Campus so as to enable them to sell and market their products among the students, teachers and staff of Al – Ameen College. The inauguration of the trade fair was on 12th October, 2018 and was decided to conduct the trade fair once in every month preferably on 12th of every month. The departmental staff provides adequate facilities and information to the members of the Kudumbasree units regarding the taste and preferences of the customers which will help them to supply the products matching to the demand. It is a programme which is organized by the department once in every month. The date of the trade fair will be announced publicly prior to their arrival.
