Background
Jagorani Chakra Foundation (JCF) was established in 1976 as a national social welfare organisation in the
southwest region of Bangladesh. Over the years, Jagorani Chakra Foundation has established a reputation
as an organisation that is committed to address the needs of disadvantaged and vulnerable people in the
community, by focusing on their social and economic development.
¡
Philosophical Foundation
From the beginning Jagorani Chakra Foundation has felt that many existing development policies tend to
benefit only the privileged, and although it is not possible to solve all the problems faced by community, the
people themselves can identify their own priorities and plan the strategies which will lead to feasible
solutions. Jagorani Chakra Foundation believes that education is the key to social change, and that the
pace of development will be accelerated by the creation of self-awareness.
¡
Vision
Jagorani Chakra Foundation has a vision of socially just; economically sustainable and environmentally
balanced communities, where poverty has been overcome and people live in dignity and security.
¡
Mission
Jagorani Chakra Foundation will continue to operate local, regional and national programmes based on the
demands and potential of ultra poor, poor and disadvantaged communities to foster their confidence and
builds the capacity to share resources and also to develop, control and sustain their endeavours to find
greater prosperity and improve the material conditions of their lives.
¡
Goal
The goal of Jagorani Chakra Foundation is to support the process of poverty alleviation and the creation of
socio-economic equity through the promotion of sustainable community based people’s institutions.
