Tiljala SHED is a grass roots, apolitical, non-religious, not-for-profit organisation based in Kolkata, India. We work to empower the city’s most underprivileged and marginalised groups, especially the rag picker communities.
The Gyan Azhar Library offers a range of services to destitute girls and is extremely popular with them. It is located inside a slum and so is easily accessible to those for whom it is meant. The library membership is nudging 700 and it is one of the busiest places in its neighborhood. It has both books and Internet facilities.
Tiljala SHED has facilitated the creation of Association of Rag Pickers of Calcutta (ARP) which is a registered legal entity and the only such association for the entire rag pickers community in West Bengal.
