  • Annual Report 2019-20 from the Desk of Secretary
    SEWA INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20 FROM THE DESK OF SECRETARY Sewa International has always been driven by a 'can-do' attitude. We deeply believe and value our capability to influence change and get into immediate action on every possibility of service. Continuing our journey in our 22nd year of operations, 2019 had been a year like never before. The year saw us expanding, consolidating some projects, and mobilizing communities across the nation for driving change and development, K. G. (Shyam) Parande and laying the foundation for future initiatives. Secretary, Sewa International In 2019, we planned for Community Engagement and Awareness on Environment, Human Trafficking, Disability through events like ‘Plog for Sewa', ‘Rickshaw Run’, ‘Fyunli Kauthig’, ‘Ride for Sewa’, ‘Greenathon’, and ‘Kalinga Fellowship’, which saw widespread participation from local communities and volunteers from abroad too. In Jan 2020, we brought multiple stakeholders like locals, experts, NGOs and govt officials on one platform named 'HIMSamvad 2020' for focused discussion and action planning on climate change impact and future action in the Himalayan region. We could effectively contribute to help disaster-affected areas like Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala, Odisha and Uttarakhand. We continued our efforts in 6 focus areas and projects aligned to SDGs. All the work that we are able to do is thanks to our excellent partner voluntary organisations, thousands of enthusiastic volunteers, the support of our trustees, advisors and friends, and our indispensable team, who always go the extra mile to deliver the best. As always, we are highly indebted to our supporters both in India as well as Diaspora world-wide, who placed their confidence in our ability to execute and deliver the desired results, and most importantly, the lakhs of beneficiaries who have placed their trust in our programs for the collective good of the society.

Great travel tool. Worth the price. Glad I bought 2.By TexLawGalI bought this map to prepare for a Buddhist pilgrimage. It's great! On slick thick "plasticated" paper that doesn't tear easily. Yay! Seems durable. I used the location key a few times - it works. I found it necessary to "Google" a couple place names to find variations when the spelling of a place name on the map didn't match the place name on my itinerary. Apparently not uncommon in India. Part of the charm. Glad I bought 2 maps - one to mark and leave behind with family, the other to take with me to India. Working with this map makes me even more excited about travelling to India. Although I'm a long time member of the National Geographic Society, this is the first time I've bought an NGS map. The map delivers what I would expect from NGS - only the best!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
