Sahjan Social Climate Development Foundation, located in the heart of Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India, is a beacon of hope and transformation for remote communities in need. Founded with a deep commitment to the welfare of underserved populations, this non-profit organization is dedicated to bridging critical gaps in access to information, technology, education, livelihood opportunities, agricultural knowledge, and women's rights.
Sahjan Social Climate Development Foundation was initiated in 2022 when a group of friends came together with the intention of giving back to the society. They were inspired by the thought and philosophy of Peter Senge, the founder of the Society for Organizational Learning who has propagated that “sustainability, social equality and the environment are now business problems…” and corporate leaders can’t expect governments to solve them alone.
What triggered these thoughts was the liberalisation of the Indian economy in the 1990’s which brought with it immense opportunities. Business revived, and India became not just a market, but also an investment prospect for the developed world. Disposable incomes and early settlements became a living reality for the working middle-class. For the first time in India, professionals could think beyond making a living, and contribute towards the society.
Sahjan Social Climate Development Foundation is mainly restricted to complete works like water maintenance, soil improvement, seed improvement, environmental improvement. Our emphasis is also on the all round development of the child's intelligence and physical. It is not possible to bring balance in the rural household without the participation of women. Therefore, by teaching women the skills of small cottage industry, we are also moving forward in such activities which support the economic strength of the household.
