Nothing can be built upon anything if the base is not strong or favorable. Hence, this is a first duty of organization to understand the context of community in terms of their mindsets and aspirations before working on any idea. It is, however, a tiring task and should pursue until first change occurs in sight. A word of caution, it could take few days to very long period of time. ;evolusun

Child Protection
Campaigning done in the traditional way is not much of use and will not bring any meaningful change. Yet the potential of campaigning is irreplaceable if we want to change long rooted patterns. A new strategic approach to campaigning accompanied by a new working style in terms of implementation can change for the better living conditions of millions of children in the country.

Understanding the possibility and opportunity in partnering with the government work has often been off the focus to many organizations. Government, in any country, is the biggest institution to deliver services and address issues. While looking at moon, the stars fade away. NGOs and other not for profits' role should be to helping government adjust the sight and see things in totality. ;evolusun

"The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty has been observed every year since 1993, when the United Nations General Assembly, by resolution 47/196, designated this day to promote awareness of the need to eradicate poverty and destitution in all countries. Fighting poverty remains at the core of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the post-2015 development agenda."
