Development that’s contextually relevant
& culturally appropriate
Nearly four decades of working closely with the communities has shaped our belief that sustainable & community centered development is possible through a constant expansion of human capabilities.
To develop the Human & Social Capital of tribal, rural and urban communities, SVYM takes a multidisciplinary approach through its interventions in Health, Education, Socio-economic Empowerment Program & Training and Research
We believe such a development process will lead to positive socio-economic consequences that are contextually relevant, culturally appropriate.
