Over these years –
with the growing periphery of action and operation, the
association of Badlao Foundation with like minded organizations
has become inevitable since the leading caliber and broad
operational base have developed various obvious openings to
undertaken for the greater cause of the deprived mass. In fact,
this cosmopolitan stature of Badlao Foundation has pursued many
organizations to join hand with issues based movements, rights
based campaigns and advocacy for many critical local aspects of
national interest. Badlao Foundation is broad basing its
approach through concerted efforts.
In Jharkhand,
good governance is still a distant dream. Until now Panchayat
elections have not taken place in Jharkhand. Several Government
projects in this state are still virtually hindered, delayed
and/or dropped due to politicization of affairs in the name of
either caste or religious groups. Ultimately, the delays and the
chronic criticalities in justice leave many to accept
exploitation by oppressors in manifold manner. Badlao is taking
various strides to strengthen the voice of the poor. As well it
is also supplementing State's activities to ensure justice
affordable to people – being free from exploitation and
harassment.
Rights and
Entitlements based Advocacy and Lobby for rural poor and
deprived tribal has been undertaken in an on going manner in
different nook and corner of the operational areas. District and
State level forums have been formed and a well planned campaign
and pressure group strategy been followed for burning issues
like Land Rights of Tribal, Property Rights of Tribal Women,
Panchayati Raj System and NTFP collection and marketing etc.
Press Meet and Civic Meets are arranged in regular intervals at
least once in a year to ensure proper exposure of these issues
to outer World.
Meaningful
support of ICCO Netherlands in establishing State level
Coordination Office at Ranchi is a remarkable venture.
Eventually, the liaison with Govt. and Non Govt. agencies have
improved a lot and people-centered rights based activities been
accelerated. This has virtually broadened the outlook and
ensured critical proficiency in its leadership quality, which is
evident from the following events:
-
Advocacy on
Tribal Women’s Property Rights
-
Advocacy on
Rural Employment and Livelihood Opportunity
-
Campaign on RTI
and NREGA
-
Networking and
Liaison on Issue based campaigns and Movements at district
level.
-
Advocacy on
promotion of Grass roots Governance (Pleading for Panchayati Raj)
-
Campaign on
Quality Health Care in Jharkhand (Sahiyya Movement)
-

NGOs of Rural India
The cognizable
impact of Liaison and Coordination works of the State
Coordination Office, Ranchi has meanwhile become a definite plus
point for Badlao Foundation since its lead role and positive
persuasions have resulted outstanding benefits to its associates
profusely. At present, the organization is association with
following development approaches . |
