SAMBANDH has completed 30 years of operation in Odisha, India this year. During this period, SAMBANDH has been focused on alleviating poverty and social exclusion by facilitating empowerment of women and girls from poor and marginalised communities, improving the standards of living of the tribal communities, addressing gender inequality and developing climate change mitigation strategies for a better future. As a development and humanitarian organization, SAMBANDH’s programmes are designed to work with the communities to catalyse demand for services and enhance their leadership skills, promote local capacities and create a supportive environment, strengthen systems to deliver quality and equitable services, and be with the people providing relief and rehabilitation in the event of disasters. This has resulted in making a difference in the lives and livelihoods of lakhs of people in the financial year 2020–21, which places the organisation well ahead of its target by the end of 2021. To be able to bring about the desired change in the communities served, SAMBANDH has developed an open and transparent organizational culture, based on the core values of respect, integrity, commitment, and excellence. A robust governance structure and investments in further strengthening key functional capabilities ensured increased efficiency and accountability in work on the ground. Over the years, the organisation has emerged as a preferred partner for communities, governments (local, state and central), project implementation partners, donors and other key stakeholders by delivering planned outcomes at the grassroot level through innovative solutions, while also generating knowledge that can be shared and adapted to diverse development challenges. Thank you for your trust and support, without which we would not have been able to achieve this scale and depth of impact.
