Our Mission |
Our mission is
to develop, through education and action,
cohesive communities empowered to create
rich, sustainable lives for themselves and
future generations.
For us, community, environment and
development are linked. Relationships and
networks developed through trust and a
continuing dialogue, enable us to respond to
changes - internal and external; social,
economic and environmental.
Working and learning together, our Centre
and communities in this area not only
develop a deeper understanding of the
interactions among the different parts of
the village ecosystem, but also of the
conflicts being generated by modernity in
traditional ways of living. Our long term
engagement with the communities,
particularly women and children, enables a
participatory way of making and implementing
decisions about what is best for them, their
families and their villages.
With this framework, we have been in a
position to plan, organise and implement
programmes that respond to various issues
like Environment, Climate Change, Education,
Women's Empowerment, Health, Livelihoods, Energy, Water and
Sanitation.
