PRAXIS-Institute for Participatory Practices
PRAXIS - Institute for Participatory Practices, a 'not for profit' organisation, was set up in May 1997 and registered in August 1997 under the Societies Act 1860 , with start-up support from the PRA Division of ActionAid India, one of the pioneering agencies in the field of participatory development, which realised the need for an entity like PRAXIS for promoting participatory approaches in a focussed manner with the mandate to serve the needs of the development sector at large.
PRAXIS aims at popularising participatory approaches in all spheres of development work. It believes that 'participation' is not merely a rhetoric but a pragmatic strategy to resolve complexities in any thematic area of development action.
PRAXIS believes in the ability of the poor people to analysis, plan and act towards their own development and for eradicating poverty. PRAXIS strives to facilitate the adoption and pursuit of participatory approaches to development by government, NGOs, donors and all other civil society actors to realise its vision of poverty eradication.
