The Samarth Samuday Pariyojna aims to improve health and disaster resilience in 10 villages of Kaiserganj, Bahraich district. Due to frequent flooding from the nearby Ghaghara River, the region faces disruptions to livelihoods, education, and health. With low literacy rates and around 70% of the population from SC/ST communities, the project addresses significant socio-economic challenges.
Project Overview
Samarth Samuday Pariyojna is dedicated to transforming the lives of vulnerable families in the
10 villages in Kaiserganj block of Bahraich district. This initiative focuses on improving health outcomes and enhancing resilience to natural disasters for residents in ten villages, enabling them
to lead lives of dignity. The need of the project in Kaiserganj was felt because Kaiserganj is
particularly susceptible to flooding due to its proximity to the Ghaghara River. These floods
disrupt livelihoods, education, and health, severely impacting the community's quality of life.
With low literacy rates and approximately 70% of the population belonging to the SC/ST
community, the region faces significant socio-economic challenges.
The primary objective of the project is to enhance nutrition, sanitation, and hygiene while
preparing 2,363 families for flood resilience in Kaiserganj.
The focus areas include:
1. Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH)
2. Food and Nutrition Security (FNS) Health and
3. Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR)
Expected Outcomes
