Every programme works in the same villages, so each one strengthens the others.
For three to four months every year, floods in north Bihar cut off livelihoods, push families to migrate and pull children out of school.
We answer that cycle with education, skills, savings and a greener village. A child who stays in school, a mother who saves with her self-help group and a young person who learns a skill to earn locally all make the same family stronger.
We want a country of hope, tolerance and social justice, where the problem of people is overcome and people live in dignity and security.
MESKP helps reduce social exclusion by accelerating education, health and empowerment for people in rural areas.
Every child has the right to education.
We keep children in school by covering fees, uniforms, books and stationery, and teach more than 65 children free of cost at our Kathalia campus. We keep 2,450 children in school and have trained 180 teachers from 40 schools.
Stronger women, safer children.
Women's self-help groups are the heart of MESKP. Each group of about 12 women saves together and is linked to bank credit and government schemes. 920 women take part in 76 groups.
Skills that earn close to home.
At our Computer Vocational Training Centre in Darbhanga, young people and women learn computer, office and tailoring skills, so they can find work without leaving home after the floods. 260 have trained and 212 have earned a certificate.
One million trees for Bihar.
We plant saplings on village land, school grounds, roadsides and homesteads, where families and students care for them through the first dry season. We have planted and cared for 30,000 saplings.
Health care that reaches the village.
We bring doctors to the villages through free health camps. On 30 December 2024 we held a free dental screening camp with Mithila Minority Dental College & Hospital, Darbhanga.
Building what villages need.
Since 1988 we have supported government programmes in rural Bihar. With CAPART we built 3.5 km of village road, 50 hand pumps and Sulabh toilets, and we led flood relief in Muzaffarpur in 2004.
