ACTIVE is following family-centered approach. A group of individuals, Socially and Economically backward, have formed with Sanghams in all targeted villages both for men (Mitra Mandals) and women (Mahila Mandals).

The approach is mainly through the process of participation by people who are motivated to participate in the development through democratization. Sanghams are the local collectives of the people in which the problems and situations are reflected and participatory decision taken on possible solution.

Bringing People into the Forefront shall be the approach of ACTIVE to its interventions in the management of Natural Resources.
