Overview |
The organisation works for the sustainable development of marginalized communities in the Himalayan region. It also ensures that the environment is not harmed in the process of development. It implements innovative projects in marginalized regions and enhances the effectiveness of public goods delivery mechanisms by training, research, and advocacy. of The above goal is achieved by modifying their projects as per the needs and location of the area. The local community is involved in the development process leading to capacity creation. Pragya carries out its work in a phased manner, changing its support structure with time. Their work starts with creating awareness, followed by the capacity creation of the community, which leads to the gradual development of the area. It also provides a range of support services to people in their project areas. The projects deal with education, healthcare, environmental conservation, cultural preservation, and gender.
