Role of NGO S And Other Agencies for the Development of Women Participation

Development of any society requires participation of people from all sections. Allocation of funds is not sufficient for the success of any developmental programme undertaken by government. Rather it largely depends on the active participation of the people. But it is found that people’s participation is less particularly in case of women. So the necessity of voluntary and non-governmental organizations is felt to renew the spirit of the people’s participation in the developmental process. The voluntary organizations play very vital role in creating awareness, educating, motivating and enlightening the people in socio-economic and political field. Here the researcher has made a brief attempt to analyze the role of NGOs, Women Self Help Groups (WSHGs) and Governmental Agencies in the Sanakhemundi Block of Odisha and their role actualization in the process of development of women and their participation.
