Myna Mahila Foundation

Myna Mahila Foundation MMF works for women through health and livelihood interventions using disruptive technologies.

Myna Mahila Foundation creates a network of young female entrepreneurs in urban slums and rural communities to empower women (school drop-outs and unemployed women from very poor households) by improving their health and by providing them with a means of livelihood. We hope to create a safe and healthy space for women to work, learn, and share their stories. We will also provide resources, mentorship, and guidance to young girls (and their families) about to start their careers, and to mothers, their families and children, so the mothers can be financially independent. We hope to educate women in skills they currently lack in communication, business, financial & economic literacy, leadership, and health. Further, we want to encourage women to talk about their bodies and health to create a movement around menstrual hygiene, sanitation, domestic violence, sexual assault, and any other topic that women are afraid to discuss aloud. We want to create a cultural revolution to break societal taboo so women start to speak up and talk, just like the common Indian bird Myna. Myna Mahila Foundation is intended to be managed by local women from slum or rural communities, where they currently have little voice and financial stability. We want to increase the standard of living for these women as they demand for their rights, are healthier and better skilled, have better guidance, resources, and mentorship, and work for the betterment of their own communities.

Behind every AI model is data, and behind every dataset are people. 💜

We were glad to be part of the launch of the AI-Data Skills Framework (AISF), developed by GxD hub at LEAD at Krea University , in partnership with The/Nudge at Charcha 2026.

The AISF is the first framework to name and standardise the skills of India’s AI-data workforce: the people who collect, label, annotate, review, and quality-check the data that powers AI. It maps five roles, from Data Associate to Data Specialist, to India’s national skills frameworks (NSQF/NCrF). That makes their work visible and gives them a base for credentials, training, and career growth.

At Myna Mahila Foundation, we were one of three organisations, along with NextWealth Entrepreneurs and Karya Inc, that shaped this framework through workshops and interviews. Our gig workers shared what their work really looks like, and their voices are in this report. 🙏

Thank you to the GxD hub and The/Nudge teams for including us, and to every worker who took the time to share their story with us.

An AI model can be built in India and still not understand the realities of the people using it.

Myna Bolo was shaped by questions sourced from the women it serves — helping us build a more localised AI that reflects Indian languages, contexts and everyday health needs.

So when a woman asks about something as practical as a diet plan, the answer can take into account the foods, habits and realities that are familiar to her.

Building AI for India means more than translating international AI models. It requires understanding the Indian context.

Research starts with listening.

And listening takes more than asking questions and recording answers.

Our surveyors spend time with the community walking into neighbourhoods, building relationships, having conversations, listening closely and learning from the women they work with.

They’re not separate from the research. They are an important part of how the research happens.

Behind every response is a person, a perspective and a lived experience.

The people behind AI deserve to be recognised.

We’re proud to share that RANI has contributed to the development of the AI-Data Skills Framework (AISF), which will be publicly launched at Charcha 2026 in New Delhi today.

We’re grateful to the The/Nudge for bringing this effort together and recognising the human workforce behind the AI ecosystem.

Here’s to building more inclusive pathways into India’s AI economy.

Myna Bolo in mid-day ! 📰💬

What happens when women can ask health questions privately, in a language they’re comfortable with, without the awkwardness?

That’s what Myna Bolo is trying to make possible.

Our WhatsApp chatbot for women’s health was recently featured in Mid-Day, highlighting how community voices, local languages, research and responsible technology came together to build Bolo. The article also looks at the kinds of questions women ask—from menstrual health and PCOS to fertility, pregnancy and vaginal health.

Thank you Rumani Gabhare for writing such a beautiful piece and mid-day, for helping more people discover Bolo. ❤️

Research matlab no assumptions.

At Myna, women’s voices and experiences are an essential part of how we design programmes and technology, from the questions we ask to the products we build.

Research starts with listening.

Kuch health questions aise hote hain jo Google pe search karna bhi awkward lagta hai.

Myna Bolo ek WhatsApp chatbot hai jahan aap aapke body, sexual aur reproductive health se jude sawaal pooch sakte hain, woh bhi apni language mein, bina judgement ke.

Sawaal sensitive hai? Bolo se pooch lo. 💬

Har health sawaal ka same answer nahi hota. 💬

Myna Bolo aapke sawaal aur situation ko samajhne ke baad next step tak guide karta hai, phir chahe woh simple gharelu nuske ho, thodi aur information ho, ya doctor se baat karne ki zarurat. 👩‍⚕️📲

🟢 Simple concern? → Self-care guidance
🟡 More support needed? → Telehealth consultation
🔴 Serious concern? → Emergency helpline guidance

Sawal Jaisa, Jawab Waisa.

Myna Bolo ko build karte waqt community se mili insights ne technology ko bhi shape kiya:

🌙 Sawaal raat ko aaye? → Voice assistant, jab zarurat ho tab available.
💬 Language bohot difficult hai? → More local, conversational aur easy-to-understand responses.
👩‍⚕️ Sawaal serious ho? → Consent ke baad telehealth consultation tak connection.

Research se insight. Insight se iteration. Aur iteration se better technology.

Because sometimes, the best part of research is the plot twist. 🎬
