We are pleased to share the signing of an MoU between RAIVA Foundation and the Art of Living’s Sri Sri Rural Development Programme Trust (AOL-SSRDP) to strengthen community-led development initiatives in Odisha.
This collaboration will focus on skill enhancement for weaver communities, holistic education, livelihood promotion rooted in traditional knowledge, market linkages and capacity building, with a strong emphasis on women’s empowerment and sustainable rural transformation.
By combining grassroots engagement with structured skilling, entrepreneurship, and research-led interventions, this partnership aims to create long-term, dignified livelihoods and resilient communities across identified regions of Odisha.
Rooted in service and guided by shared values, this is a step towards development that is inclusive, sustainable and human-centred.
When organisations align with shared values and long-term commitment, impact becomes irreversible.
