RBKS : Rajasthan Bal Kalyan Samiti, NGOs Rajasthan, Udaipur NGO

RBKS, an acronym for Rajasthan Bal Kalyan Samiti, is a non-government organization, registered under the Society registration 1860. Since March 1981 it has been working on developmental issues to benefit poor and deprived sections with special emphasis on women and child development at education, health and livelihood front. RBKS believes that education and health is constitutional right of the people and its provision is a fundamental duty of the state and civil society. RBKS was initiated by the spirited missionary Pdt. Jeevat Ram Sharma as a crusade against ignorance. Today a number of inspired and adroit alumni are serving the society and are involved in the process. The initial years of RBKS focused on Education as primary sector, while now it applies the principles of integration.

RBKS has adopted a participatory and people centered approach directed to protect basic rights of people living in poverty through awareness and empowerment. Our main strategy is to develop linkages with various government schemes and other opportunities through collaboration. For RBKS, education is a facilitation tool to address the aspects of right to participate; to information; freedom of expression; of assembly and of association for marginalized people whose voice is never heard by the dominant classes. During recent years RBKS started playing role of empowerment of deprived part of community dalits, women, physically challenged and children around development services and basic right issues. RBKS seeks to improve the overall status of rural communities especially tribal through creating awareness and capacity building of providers.
