What do the MDGs mean to you? These problems used to exist earlier and still exit today. The MDGs have
interlinked all these problems by bringing them together. Income's
relation with food security, and these two's relation with education and
all these combined relation with the environment... the MDGs have created
a platform to think about all these issues together and not keep them
compartmentalized as different.

What Message would you give to the Donors?
As small NGOs we don't have the capacity to change the whole
district, state or country, but these small funds are very important to
mobilize the community, to involve them in the planning and as a result
the people are able to take care of themselves. 'Most of the
project are not owned by the community and they have a top to bottom
approach where the state formulates and the project which in turn will
have an effect on the people. Instead these projects have a bottom to top
approach where the community tries to understand what is it that they
need, how they need it, where they need it and then the projects are
implemented.

What is it that motivates you to work in the social sector?
I'm a geologist by profession but i
landed up in this profession by default. What makes me really happy and
satisfied when because of me i see people stand up on their own feet and
become more aware of their right... a satisfaction which maybe if i was in
a 'normal' job would not have got.
