SCOPE IN REMOTE SATARA



Vishwas started his Social Service in Remote Satara in the year 1999. One of the state government agriculture officers visited SCOPE work-sites in Pune district. He saw the works there. After having seen the works, talking to some of the beneficiaries of the works around he requested the SCOPE to start its work in Satara remote area for marginal and poor communities. This will help check migration of the original settlers. The children too will get good education from SCOPE. Moreover, the people of that area will come to know of their basic rights. It will also help the area to develop. 

Accordingly, as per the suggestions of the Government official the SCOPE visited the villages in that area. we visited some families so we get know about there social and economical status, than same night in the village we had community meeting with mix group of the people of different cast. The next day we visited different offices those who are directly involved in the development of this people  and collected population wise list of the villages, area map to know geographical bag round of this area, list of the govt social worker there telephone numbers. There agriculture status report all the related information we collected from different govt officials to select an 20 villages cluster to start work with people, our way of presiding is process peoples participation   mines is people are center of there own development. Than we started visiting the villages when ever and wherever people are  available we were attending them according there time so that they could not west there daily work. After the visitation of month there was lot of expectations for various help but their first request was to start something livelihood project so than can remain here to look after there children for there education and they look after there old parents so they can work here and earn something instead of migrating towards the city.
