Rural Development Programme

Rural Development

"The future of India lies in its villages" - Mahatma Gandhi

Why focus on Rural Development?

As per the 2011 Census Data, rural population in India comprises about 68.84% of the overall population in the country. It is, therefore imperative that any development programme undertaken in the country must involve the vast rural populace to maximize the impact.

End Poverty realizes this fact and has been striving hard to drive change at the grassroots in our operational areas. The idea has been to build the capacities of rural communities and identify agents of change from those communities itself.
