Our Villages are
Collapsing

Our villages are facing a relentless cycle of agrarian distress, forced migration, community breakdown, devastated habitats, compounded by a crisis in Youth & women – participation, ownership, and leadership within its constitutional and cultural institutions.

The Sound Solution

At GramChetna, we believe in the power of trained community health workers to bring better health to villages and communities. We work to support and promote these workers so they become a normal part of healthcare everywhere.

We help create simple health guidelines, raise money to support health programs, and work with governments to make strong health policies.
