Agragamee

Agragamee, which means, "pioneer", is a group of activists and thinkers committed to working with marginalized and underprivileged communities in the tribal districts of Orissa, in India. Our efforts at initiating a people-centred development have combined an issue-based approach with programmes for socio-economic development.

Description:

Agragamee has been engaged in people-centred, culturally sensitive and ecologically balanced sustainable development of remote tribal communities in Orissa for over two decades.

The State Level Consultation on PESA to be held has a very simple Agenda:

On 11th Oct, the tribal leaders and Functionaries of the Panchayati Raj Institutions will deliberate on PESA related issues with minimum moderation. On this day, there will be no Inaugural Speech, no VIPs lighting the Lamp etc. The outcome will be identification of issues and preparation of Action Plan.
On 12th Oct, there will be general discussion on the issues identified on Day I.
