Programs

  • Natural Resource Management

    Badlao Foundation, with 37 years of experience, focuses on enhancing rural and tribal livelihoods. They emphasize sustainable agriculture, non-timber forest produce utilization, and watershed management to improve living standards and income. Climate change awareness is a priority, with initiatives like organic farming and eco-friendly technology adoption. They understand the vital connection between land, water, and forests in rural communities and employ an integrated development approach. In Santhal Pargana, where many face resource loss and deprivation, especially tribal communities, Badlao Foundation remains dedicated to empowering these marginalized groups through sustainable solutions and holistic approaches, striving for transformative change and improved living conditions.

  • Education, Health and Nutrition

    To address malnutrition and improve the quality of life in the Santhal Pargana region, Badlao Foundation promotes kitchen gardens, particularly among tribal communities, to change food habits and encourage healthier living. They also focus on educating communities about nutrition and health through awareness campaigns. Additionally, Badlao Foundation is committed to combating low literacy rates, gender disparities, and harmful cultural practices such as early marriage of girls and witchcraft, by promoting education, raising awareness, and promoting an inclusive and progressive society. Their aim is to empower individuals and communities, challenge harmful beliefs, and create a more equal and dignified environment in the region.

  • Khadi and Village Industries Commissions

    Badlao Foundation is working to empower rural communities through Khadi and village industries. They have established six spinning and weaving centres, trained and empowered beneficiaries, and created self-employment opportunities. Khadi, symbolizing self-sufficiency and social progress, is at the heart of this initiative, with its historical connection to Mahatma Gandhi and the Swadeshi movement. The Khadi and Village Industries Commission's objectives align with Badlao Foundation's commitment to generating employment, producing marketable goods, and promoting self-reliance in rural communities. They have outlets and manufacturing units in multiple locations, contributing to the revitalization of traditional craftsmanship, self-employment promotion, and sustainable economic development in rural areas. This initiative honours heritage and preserves cultural legacies while enhancing livelihoods.

  • Mahila Sabha Mutual Benefit Trust

    The Mahila Sabha Mutual Benefit Trust (MBT), formed by Badlao Foundation, is a federation of Mahila Sabha groups aimed at advancing women's empowerment and achieving specific development goals. This federation acts as an interface between grassroots initiatives and Badlao Foundation's interventions, focusing on women's issues. Initially, Badlao Foundation will coordinate and support the MBT's activities, with plans to transfer extension centres for greater autonomy. Capacity-building and financial resources are key considerations. A dedicated core team guides and supports MBT initiatives, with the goal of fostering women's autonomy, gender equality, and socio-economic development through collaborative efforts.Top of Form
