The project aims to develop and design community based integrated sustainable development program for 3 villages in Rajasthan & Haryana like model villages, with improved health, nutrition, sanitation and livelihood status with focus on women, Children and youths. It includes intervention in maternal & child health, hygiene & sanitation, training for computer & English classes and income generating activities, safe drinking water, and protection of the village environment.
