Genesis:

Abhivyakti was founded in the year 1998 as an informal art & culture group for social

cultural recreation among youth through Srijan Utsav, Natya Mahotsava and folk arts

exhibitions. It was founded by local youth from various streams who came together for

youth initiatives in Giridih. Two informal action groups emerged from this process –

Abhivyakti Artists’ Association for Generation (AAAG) to promote art and culture

activities in the area and Abhivyakti Youth Association – for youth initiatives to social

action.

It was formally registered as a trust under Indian Trust Act, 1882 in the year 2002.

Vision:

Self dependent civil society having full realization of and complete access to basic human

needs, rights and entitaliments without any discrimination of caste, creede, sex, faith,

religion………

Mission:

To aware people and mobilize self initiatives based on local available resources for sustainable development and right balance over generations.

Guiding Principles:

Abhivyakti Foundation is motivated by the Gandhian philosophy and it follows the

endogenous theory of development. We believe in the inherent values and bottom up

planning for the development of lowest sections of society. This requires active

involvement of local communities in the participatory process for development.

Working Area:

Abhivyakti is presently working in Giridih, Dumka, Deoghar and Chatra districts of Jharkhand. The capacity building events are extended over Hazaribag and Koderma

districts also. The present focus of organizational activities is in 40 villages in these

locations and 2 slum pockets in Giridih municipal area.

Mandate:

The organizational mandate supports development action to strengthen following core

principles:

Build up scientific temperament among the target communities through

• awareness, community organization,

• Capacity building and mass education.

• Community health

• Gender equality

• Natural Resource Use

• and, Sustainable Livelihood

About the Organizaiton:

Abhivyakti Foundation is a non-profit voluntary organization registered under Indian

Trust Act,1882. We are a team of young social activists from different streams and

professions, some of the members have been actively involved with different development

programmes in the area as youth interns. The team is inspired with Gandhian thought of development and we are looking forward to increase participation of local marginalized

communities in development mainstream. The organization has its roots in the non formal

group ‘Abhivyakti’ that was started in the year 1998 by interested youth for social cultural

activities to fill up the cultural void in Giridih which has glorious past of its cultural

heritages.

The initial activities of organization revolved round “Srijan Mahotsav”, “Natya

Mahotsava”, and academic programmes; and gradually increased its involvement with

development mainstream that led to formal registration of this groups as Abhivyakti

Foundation. Abhivyakti is working with youth in community development blocks Giridihand Jamua whereas the extensive operational area is extended across the Giridih district

and adjoining districts of Deoghar, Dumka, Hazaribag and Koderma. The specific focus of

extended area coverage is in the fields of capacity building, documentation, awareness

activities, study and participatory research.

The organization relies on youth voluntarism for social action through its two wings

Abhivyakti Artists’ Association for Generations (AAAG) that was founded to promote

music, theatre and fine arts for social advocacy and Abhivyakti Youth Association (AYA)

that looks after volunteer drives. In this process we have been working with college pass

out youth who act as change catalyst and Abhivyakti provides them necessary inputs to build up their personality, orientation and capacity. While working with them we usually

provide them challenges in form of smaller projects for development of IEC materials that

could help the civil society organizations in mass education. We only provide them an

opportunity to explore the ideas and a range of reference and some study materials from

our library, interviewing with other groups and peer based learning. Besides IEC some of

the interested youth have also associated in the GIS based micro-planning work and some

study work where the organization has facilitated the process. This helps them synthesize

the ground realities and build up their own perception and response to the issues of social

concern.

The involvement of youth not only associate them with the local history, culture, valuesand ethos but also help them to keep away from substance abuse, emotional disturbances

and builds up self confidence and esteem.

After getting their jobs they are working in their own capacity and occasionally involve

themselves with organizational activities, when they are back at home. The core

programmatic activities of the organization revolve around community health, education,

capacity building, mass motivation and cultural events.
