We aim to strengthen ties in local communities so that people can work together to bring about positive changes in their lives. We believe that each and every person-irrespective of their sex, age, race, colour, class and religion should have a life of freedom, dignity and opportunity in which they enjoy all their human rights. In pursuit of this vision Prayatn works to enable people facing inequa
lity and injustice to help themselves. We particularly encourage women to participate in this process, as they are the most marginalized, downtrodden and powerless social group in India. Prayatn gives them the opportunity to develop their decision-making skills and leadership capacity so that they can address the issues affecting their lives. Playing the role of catalysts, we help to implement sustainable development processes that will make communities self-sufficient in the long term.
