意思
Working together makes us stronger
文化背景
The proverb is a staple of the 'Kudumbashree' movement, one of the world's largest women's empowerment networks based in Kerala. It is often the first proverb children learn, usually accompanied by the story of the bundle of sticks. Kerala's strong trade unions frequently use this concept to justify collective bargaining. It is often cited during inter-faith gatherings to promote communal peace in the state.
