Strengthen Panchayati Raj Institutions through Awareness Campaign:

We organized awareness campaign for newly elected Sarpanchs, Ward members of PRIs and MPTCs exclusively focusing on gender equity by capacitating PRI stakeholders in active participation, transparency improvement, social auditing, accountability to people and encouraging all developmental activities in the village by developing partnerships and networking.
