About RACE
“Life Education and Development Support” (LEADS) is a voluntary non-profit organization registered under the Indian Trust Act (1882) in 2005. Our aim is to promote social inclusion and democratic governance so that the vulnerable sections of society are empowered to effectively and decisively participate in mainstream development and decision making processes. LEADS have all legal registration (including FCRA) required running the organization. LEADS was established with the purpose to create some developmental model by unfolding human potentials, which is the core element of sustainability and replicate such models with the support of Govt. and other developmental organizations. LEADS work at the field level in partnership with local civil society and people’s organizations. The collective experience, learning and insight enable us to work on knowledge building, training and advocacy. All initiatives are executed in a framework of collaboration and partnership to empower people for demanding their entitlements and enable the service providers, including the government, to deliver in a transparent and accountable manner. Since its inception, LEADS has planned to intervene at five levels:
LEADS believe in potential of human being irrespective of caste, creed, religion and sex. Every individual has varieties of inner qualities, which can be promoted and utilized in the greater interest of humanity through appropriate life education and development support. Ensuring rights of every individual will provide ample scope for development of all sections of society, which will further help in unfolding human potentials and building confidence of poor and marginalized communities. The organization plans its intervention on the basis of its development understanding and ideology.
To create an inclusive society where all stakeholders, particularly the vulnerable, participate with full empowerment and gain equal access to and control over services, resources and institutions. The values like mutual respect and cooperation, participation, trust and brotherhood, gender equity, peace and justice will prevail and be practiced in the society. Environment will be free from all sorts of pollution.”
Our mission is to make real the idea of a society consisting of free and equal citizens who are able to come together to solve the problems that affect them in their particular contexts. The commitment is to work for a paradigm of development and governance that is democratic and polyarchic. We seek to institutionalize the idea that development and governance should not just be left to the state and its formal bodies, such as the legislature and the bureaucracy, but that citizens and their associations should engage separately and jointly with the state.
LEADS believe in people's knowledge, skills and experience. LEADS is committed to give strategic thrust on the issues like: Empowering Tribal Community, Providing Life Education to Children and Adolescent, Women Empowerment, Livelihood Support to Poor and Marginalized, Natural Resource Promotion, Technical Skill Up Gradation for Employment Generation, Health etc. to bring appropriate changes and promote dignified life of poor and marginalized people of the society. Rights based intervention through participatory approach will be core commitment of LEADS.
