CORD - Chinmaya Organization for Rural Development
CORD is the service wing of Chinmaya Mission which has been working towards holistic rural development for over three decades. Although CORD was formed in 2003, it is actually a continuation and national expansion of its earlier work in comprehensive integrated rural development under Chinmaya Rural Primary Health Care and Training Centre (CRPHC&TC) founded in 1985, which was a development wing of Chinmaya Tapovan Trust (CTT), located in district Kangra, Himachal Pradesh.
CORD has over 35 years of experience in comprehensive integrated rural development work in 895 villages (India). Starting in 2005, CORD embarked on replicating its success in Himachal Pradesh to other states in India Viz. Odisha and Tamil Nadu. At present, CORD is in the process of expanding its integrated rural development program in other remote sites i.e. two sites in Uttarakhand, one site in Punjab, and three sites in District Chamba.
CORD is reaching out to half a million rural people in the country through its various program components. CORD’s program has facilitated 1096 Mahila Mandals with more than 35,000 women members, 2147 Self Help Groups, 219 Farmer clubs, 657 Adolescents Girls Groups, 240 children groups known as ‘Balvihar’. CORD’s integrated program includes Community Based Livelihood, Farm and Allied sector and Non-Farm and service sector (15000 beneficiaries), Community Based Inclusion and Rehabilitation (CBIR) for people with disabilities working with more than 2128 disabled people and their parents. CORD also works in the area of Health, Nutrition and Sanitation as well as Strengthening of Local Self Government through effective Up- Gram Sabhas and Gram Sabhas in Panchayati Raj Institutions. Under the ‘Gender and Social Justice’ program under its Informal Legal Cell, it has resolved 754 out of 1007 cases.
