Parivartan’s programming intentionally advances multiple United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Below is a concise mapping of our core interventions to the SDGs they most directly support.
• SDG 1 – No Poverty: Livelihood initiatives (tailoring, mat-knitting, sanitary pad units) reduce poverty and create sustained incomes.
• SDG 3 – Good Health & Well-being: Preventive health camps (cancer screening), Project Abhay wellness checks, menstrual health programs, and Covid relief ensure healthier communities.
• SDG 4 – Quality Education: Pre-puberty education, self-advocacy workshops, career counselling, and school outreach promote inclusive education and life skills.
• SDG 5 – Gender Equality: Women’s economic programs, menstrual health initiatives, and POSH training advance gender equality and women’s agency.
• SDG 6 – Clean Water & Sanitation: Khedli Jeeta’s ODF achievement, water facilities, and waste management practices improve sanitation and hygiene.
• SDG 8 – Decent Work & Economic Growth: Skill-building and livelihood programs foster decent work and entrepreneurship for marginalized communities.
• SDG 11 – Sustainable Cities & Communities: Animal welfare, community resilience during crises, and police training contribute to safer, more inclusive urban spaces.
• SDG 12 – Responsible Consumption & Production: Promotion of eco-friendly menstrual products and biodegradable waste-to-manure initiatives support sustainable consumption.
• SDG 13 – Climate Action: Tree-planting, waste-to-resource projects, and promotion of sustainable practices contribute to climate resilience.
• SDG 16 – Peace, Justice & Strong Institutions: Capacity building for Panchayati Raj leaders and institutional collaborations strengthen local governance and civic participation.
• SDG 17 – Partnerships for the Goals: Collaborations with government, academia, corporates, and NGOs multiply impact and resource mobilization.
