Capacity Assessment and Capacity Development Strategy Report5. CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS5.1 NGOsThough NGOs in the state work in many areas, Panchayati Raj is not one area in which they are present.Some of the NGOs working in the state are:• International: PRIA (Society for Participatory Research in Asia), CARE.• Indian: Institutions like the Ramakrishna Mission have been working in the area since pre-independence;they reach out to the remotest corners of the state where many CSOs do not exist. They work towardsthe upliftment of society through spiritual means.• Holistic development: Organizations like Vikas Bharti have a huge network and outreach across theentire state. They do what they can to help the present generation but work harder to ensure that thenext generation sees a brighter future. Therefore, they have set up schools, colleges, and ashrams ininterior tribal areas and also have extensive infrastructure and reach.• Grassroots level: They have good rapport with the local community and this social capital needs to betapped.• Technical support organizations: UNDP project teams (CDLG, biodiversity, convergence, andsustainable livelihood) and UNICEF provide technical support to the government for its variousdepartments and programmes.A few NGOs have also worked with the state PRD and its training institutions. Several grassroots levelNGOs seem to be working in community mobilization and dealing with rural issues. There is a paucityof technical support organizations in the state. All these indicate the need for a long-term contributorypartnership development strategy to involve civil society in PRI-CB&T.5.2 Research InstitutionsThe Tribal Welfare Research Institute, Ranchi conducts research on tribal issues and culture.
