OVERVIEW

Gram Vikas has demonstrated pathways to address issues of poverty and underdevelopment. We have institutional strengths to rely upon, memories to guide our way ahead, and collaborations, old and new. The Gram Vikas Decade V Strategic Direction and Programme Framework builds upon our achievements, over 40 years, to consolidate and deepen our work with the partner communities and widen reach to new communities in the current geographies. Our work will continue to respond to the needs of the communities and be delivered at scale with quality.

The six pillars under the Gram Vikas Decade V plan will interact to manage the interconnectedness of development problems and their solutions.
