Who are you trying to help? What issue are you trying to address?

Palash Palli Unnayan Sangstha (PPUS) believes in integrated development strategy with bottom up participatory approach and management framework based on peoples’ needs. PPUS continues to design and implement innovative programs to organize and assist the poor and disadvantaged people to improve the quality of life through their active involvement in socio-economic activities.

PPUS feels that people should have the opportunities to develop and become self reliant economically, and then side by side would become aware of their legal and human rights, so that they can live as distinguished and progressive citizen. As production is the basis of all sections of development, PPUS has chosen the program of production-based development in Palash Thana. PPUS believe this programe will be a unique one if successfully completed.

PPUS will provide practical and theoretical training to the target population on Fish Culture, Poultry & Cattle rearing. PPUS will motivate and encourage participants to involve in farming/cultivating. Saplings/fingerlings and necessary expertise and support will be provided by PPUS. PPUS will also establish demonstration plots for Fish Culture, Poultry & Cattle rearing, Nursery and Forestation so that the target population can receive practical training and ideas. Then PPUS will lease lands / ponds owned by the government / local Government authorities or individuals, and local youth will be involved to implement the project.
