Anode has contributed to building a systematic engagement with panchayats in PRADAN through their Gram Panchayat Organisation Development framework. We have seen shifts in thought, behaviour, systems, and processes in panchayats, towards enabling access to services and collaborating with citizen-based organisations such as self-help groups. Anode has been instrumental in skilling our teams with technical knowledge and scaling our work with panchayats to several districts in Jharkhand.
