Welcome…
While there are clearly many promises of
development for the poor in rural areas of developing countries by the
United Nations Development Programs, World Bank and other international
donor agencies, it is not well acknowledged how far such initiatives
have reached the poor. The typical top-down need analysis by donors as
well as NGOs (Non Governmental Organizations) sometimes ignores what the
people affected by poverty actually need. Therefore, such development
interventions suffer from both operational and financial
unsustainability. Now, it has become important to address what the needs
of the poor and their ability to afford essential services.
Rural Emancipation Society (RES),
Bangladesh is designed to meet
the needs of the poor in a rural area of a densely populated poor
Southeast Asian country, Bangladesh. Our approach is to identify the
needs in terms of agro-based livestock, and then provide some
alternative solutions for development. This organization is based on
practical experiences learned from a particular rural area of
Bangladesh.
Initiated in 2006, the organization is
working for the poor, needy and destitute men, women and families in
Bangladesh. The organization is of focusing on poverty alleviation,
education, health, hygiene and environmental conditions. Since its
inception, RES has helped 40 families including divorced, women with a
disability and wives of daily laborers.
RES is planning to initiate two new
projects: Collective Farm and Rural Technology.
RES will be incorporated soon in Australia
with a name: RES
Foundation Australia.
