Strategy
Without long-term strategy the best of action plans go why-wire. So to reach the objectives of the organization we have devised a comprehensive strategy to be implemented in the project area. The organization has deliberately chosen a small project area in which it works directly with the people. This was done to optimally use the scarce resources at its disposal. Our strategy for development is integrated development in a small area. Besides it has envisaged working in collaboration with local organizations on a project-to-project basis.
Mission

To make real the idea of a society consisting of free and equal citizens who are able to come together and solve the problems that affect them in their particular contexts. The commitment is to work for a paradigm of development and governance that is democratic and polyarchic.

Vision

SHANTiDHAM FOUNDATION enables people to take responsibility for the situation of the deprived Indian poor people and so motivates them to confront the situation through collective action thereby giving the poor and themselves an opportunity to realize their full potential.

Aim

To be a role model for social voluntary organizations, non-govt. organizations and community - based organizations working actively in the rural/tribal areas of Odisha and make these organizations look up to it for leadership.
