Goranbose Gram Bikas Kendra, GGBK
Goranbose Gram Bikas Kendra (GGBK), established in 1985 and officially registered in 1987 in the picturesque region of the Sunderbans, stands as a stalwart not-for-profit organisation dedicated to social transformation. With a broad vision, GGBK actively collaborates with vulnerable communities not only in West Bengal but also extends its reach to various states across India. The organisation's multifaceted mission aims at constructing a society that is free from the shackles of illiteracy, caste-based discrimination, poverty, slavery, and gender bias.
GGBK's approach is deeply rooted in community engagement and empowerment. By fostering partnerships with local communities, the organisation works to uplift and amplify the voices of those on the margins of society. Education becomes a powerful tool in their arsenal, not just for imparting knowledge but as a catalyst for dismantling barriers and fostering inclusivity. GGBK envisions a society where every individual, regardless of background, enjoys equal opportunities and stands united against the forces that perpetuate inequality.
As a key partner in the Leadership Next initiative, GGBK brings a wealth of experience, community insights, and a proven track record of grassroots impact. The collaboration signifies a shared commitment to addressing the root causes of exploitation and discrimination, advocating for social justice, and collectively working towards a future where communities thrive in harmony and equality.
