Abstract
The Rural Awareness Work Experience (RAWE) programme, an integral part of the B.Sc (Hons) Community Science curriculum, aims to enhance the proficiency and confidence of rural families by providing knowledge in various Home Science fields through extension methodologies. This programme is designed to improve the quality of life for rural families and foster a close-knit interaction, contributing to their holistic development (Kaur and Mann, 2020). RAWE's objective is to develop a deeper understanding of rural life and the diverse household activities in villages (Mann and Sachan, 2017). For the study "Impact of RAWE Programme on awareness and Adoption level of Rural Homemakers about selected Managerial practices," one hundred homemakers from Raisen District were chosen at random. In order to gauge the understanding and adoption of appropriate managerial practices pertaining to time, money, and energy, validated inventories comprising these activities were given to a pre- and post-training sample. Pre- and post-informal training outcomes were contrasted. The "Z" test was used to evaluate how training affected rural homemakers' knowledge of and adoption of managerial abilities. Results showed that following participatory training under RAWEP, rural homemakers' awareness of and adoption of managerial skills pertaining to time, money, and energy greatly enhanced.
