Action for Agricultural Renual in Maharashtra (AFARM)
Action for Agricultural Renewal in Maharashtra (AFARM) is a
voluntary organisation formed for the collective benefit of the
voluntary organisations through their own collective actions. Born
out of an acute felt need for an apex institution to co-ordinate
efforts of the voluntary organisations in their task for providing
drinking water to villages, AFARM today provides a forum for
interaction amongst its members and for the interaction between
its members and other funding and developmental organisations
including Government for all round NGO development

Pembina The Agency for Accelerated Regional Development ( abbreviated as AFARD) is an
indigenous voluntary, non-for-profit and non-denominational organisation
formed in July 2000, by experienced and committed development
professionals, for the purposes of promoting participatory and endogenic
development in the West Nile region of Uganda. Legally, AFARD is
registered as a Non-Governmental Organisation with the National NGO Board
(Registration No S.5914/3753 ? now renewed); and with the Registrar of
Companies as a Company Limited by Guarantee (Registration No 45170). Second, many development interventions have been ?external to local context? and imposed thereby leaving dysfunctional structures and a people hardly changed. Third, ?democratic centralism and machination? by government made the people subjects and not citizen of the state. And, finally, the regional human resource flight limits new innovations and enthusiasms to work for self development.
Thus, without resigning to despair, we believe that the region can, and
indeed should, develop at a faster pace; and that any meaningful
development should be endogenous and an integral function of both
improved well being and people?s empowerment.
