The objective is to create an environment for our community partners to help them establish key strategic priorities and support sustainable development. This process helps achieve greater self-sufficiency for present and future generations.

Working closely with people living in the municipal Wards 59, 65 & 66, Ek Tara develops and delivers programmes and initiatives that respond to their needs and supports the communities. Focusing on local priorities, and bringing people together around key issues, providing information / training, encourage collaboration, support planning and implementation along with local authorities; Ek Tara delivers benefits to the local residents. It’s a triangular methodology based on stakeholder engagement, feedback and consultant recommendation.

To ensure the success of our intervention, a Community Mobilization Programme was becoming increasingly necessary. We take regular assessments of our beneficiaries by collecting household data and evaluating the worthiness of their sponsorship. Due to this Programme we are also able to share information with stakeholders for the advancement of our initiatives and get a better understanding of our impact.

Chakke Pe Kaksha – Mobile School

This project in partnership with the Belgian organization – The Mobile School aims at providing quality learning resources at the primary level using 360 panels on various subjects. It reaches out to 600 children.

The project seeks out street and slum children in their own environment and creates positive meeting places where the child is unconditionally accepted and respected. The street workers visit the children to listen to them, build up a trusting relationship and offer opportunities to develop a positive self-image.

Mothers’ Forum

Parental support includes direct learning before and during formal education, as well as monitoring and facilitating factors that are indirectly linked, such as nutrition, behaviour, health, and hygiene. Ek Tara engages with the families through awareness programmes. The mothers forum is a platform that equips an elective parent representative body that replicates the learning acquired during their time at EK Tara . The project reaches out to 800 families.
