A “FOR-PURPOSE” ORGANISATION
Did you know more than 60% of India’s population still lives in rural areas? Despite the rise of urbanisation more than half of India’s population is projected to be rural by 2050.
At Parinaama, we believe that investing in the rural economy is key to overall growth and inclusive development of the country. We are on a mission to improve the lives of the marginalised through grassroots development initiatives.
WHAT WE DO
INVESTING IN WOMEN AND YOUTH
We believe in working alongside women and youth as they have a firsthand experience of what works and what does not work in their communities. Our participants are the information creators, problem solvers and knowledge holders themselves.
We assist families in the remotest villages in India to improve their living standards by providing access to education, healthcare and livelihood opportunities.
