What do you do if villages in your area (including yours) have broken water wells? Learn to fix them yourself! Ram Rati has blossomed from an oppressed child bride at 11 into a female mechanic who is lauded as a hero in her community. Not only does Rati fix broken wells in the area, but she has become a role model and advocate for women and young girls, encouraging education and empowerment. GOOD has a great profile of Rati and a nice photo essay about her and the other mechanics who help maintain clean water for villages all over their district.Read the profile of Ram Rati.
