A group of friends, having professional education of same thoughts in social work came together to work for people from the most marginalized sections of the society. The focus was to target the urban poor, especially the groups which were most vulnerable and target areas which had poor access to government facilities as a result of their location. Hence “Pragya Social Organization” (Previously “Pragya Samiti) was formed and registered under the societies’ registration act to work with such communities, especially children and women. Organization is also working with environment awareness, sustainable livelihood, rural development, women health issues and impact assessment projects.
