PEOPLE’S ACTION IN DEVELOPMENT (PAID)

PAID started in 2015 with a mission to secure sustainable livelihood and food security for 1800 targeted families of 18 tribal prone villages of Bangomunda block of Bolangir District of Odisha through promotion of sustainable agriculture and building strong self-help structures in the shade of multiple State & Central Government sponsored schemes and programmes.

PAID promotes the adoption of natural resource management and sustainable agricultural practices in communities. To reduce vulnerabilities associated with poverty and food insecurity of communities, it also promotes off farm income generation activities through convergence of MGNREGS & NRLM on both individual and community level through the creation of durable assets within a community that leads to sustainable income.

In addition to this, PAID has also initiated multiple groups like self-help groups of women and its federation, Forest Management Committee and Job Seekers Committee that have enriched our vision of sustainable development.

The planned measures have now ensured a minimum of 150 days employment through mass job demand and have addressed the problems related to sustainable agriculture by improving agriculture production and food availability that has benefitted in improving malnutrition among women and children and reduced migration and indebtedness of people in the operational areas.
