Our Story
Discover Our Journey So Far
Manav Sansadhan Vikas Sansthan Chaibasa (MSVSC) came into existence as a result of the motivation and personal initiative of its founder Secretary, Dr. Ranjit Prasad, to enhance the socio-economic status of the underprivileged people. Hailing from a rural family, the founder was no stranger to hardships faced by the underprivileged. Having overcome economic and social challenges, due to the backing and economic blessings from certain elder society leaders, the founder set out to do his best to make a positive difference in the lives of fellow underprivileged.
Working with a team of committed people, MSVSC’s aim has been to secure integrated development through people’s participation. The key areas identified for interventions include education, Environment, sustainable livelihood, and women empowerment.
At MSVSC, we have always believed in the capacities
and capabilities of the communities, and have always strived to channel their hidden energies for the betterment of society at large. Our efforts have always been directed towards creating an environment that is conducive to enhancing opportunities to local people to think and act positively. We have always endeavored to develop skills and competencies of the local communities with a view to enabling them to operate and maintain the assets created through the implementation of the projects on a sustainable basis.
This philosophy of ours has led us to adopt a holistic and participatory approach to rural development. We believe in an inclusive approach, covering all the sections of the society, particularly the underprivileged, in a village. We work with the existing village level fora (and creating new ones wherever necessary) through Participatory Rural Population. Appraisal (PRA) approaches, principles and techniques.
