  • Since

    1998

In a small village of Bhatwadgaon, Saraswati Sevabhavi Sanstha Bhatwadgaon was founded in 1998 as a non-government organisation (NGO) under the Societ Read moreies Registration Act, 1860 for the promotion of livelihood opportunities, natural resource management, improving quality of life, sanitation and personal hygiene towards improved community health, education and natural resources, more effective rural governance, etc. Initially, the organization’s activities were limited to the economic empowerment of poor women through micro-finance programs and were restricted to a few villages in the Majalgaon block of Beed district. Gradually, the activities spread to villages of other neighboring districts (e.g., Parbhani, Jalna & Latur,) of the Marathwada region of Maharashtra. For the last few years, it has been emerging as a state-level organization particularly in watershed development and its management as well as child and female protection. Currently, SSSB has been working in close cooperation and collaboration with the government, CSR agencies, Kailash Satyarthi Foundation, New Delhi at various levels.

Programs

  • Watershed Development

    To develop a context-appropriate plan for execution, the watershed development approach relies on participatory planning that follows a bottom-up approach. It also empowers and employs people through the establishment and strengthening of local-level institutions, conserves natural resources through the holistic development of the watershed, and promotes sustainability through volunteerism, people's participation in the process of development, and the formulation and adoption of a withdrawal strategy for the project's post-project sustainability. The key to the longevity of the community-based participatory watershed development project is the strong sense of ownership that the villagers have because they generate and maintain the assets.

  • Natural Resource Management

    The project is underway in 47 villages across three regions of the country, to give rural communities effective empowerment in the management of their natural resources. With the active involvement of the local populations, several micro projects (dikes, tiny dams, wells, women's vegetable gardens, and nurseries of indigenous tree species) are underway.
