Village Development Program-VDP

VDP has been founded to address issues of sustainable development through innovation, appropriate technology promotion and capacity building, VDP philosophy is not to duplicate the mandate of existing NGOs, rather crave a niche of its own to distinctly contribute  to  the  sustainable  development  in  general  and  NRM  and  water  and environment sector in particular. Thus VDP calls itself a knowledge based NGO, predominantly interested in promotion of best management practices and appropriate technology in sector.
