Exploring the Different Types of NGOs in India and Their Functions

Introduction

Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) play a crucial role in India’s social and economic development. They work in diverse fields, including education, healthcare, human rights, and environmental protection. However, their effectiveness and transparency have often been debated. This article explores the different types of NGOs in India, how they operate, and their impact on society.

a) Charitable NGOs

Charitable NGOs are nonprofit organizations that focus on providing direct aid and relief to underprivileged individuals and communities. They often work in areas such as poverty alleviation, education, healthcare, disaster relief, and food distribution.

Key Features of Charitable NGOs:

Direct Assistance: They provide food, shelter, clothing, and medical care to those in need.

Funded by Donations: They rely on individual and corporate donations, government grants, and crowdfunding.

Examples of Charitable NGOs in India:

Amma Nanna Anada Ashramam — Supports mentally disabled orphans and provides daily meals and shelter for over 600 orphans.

Akshaya Patra Foundation — Provides mid-day meals to school children.

HelpAge India — Assists elderly citizens with healthcare and basic needs.

b) Service-Oriented NGOs

Service-oriented NGOs focus on providing specific services to communities in need, such as healthcare, education, sanitation, and skill development. Unlike purely charitable NGOs that offer direct relief, these NGOs work towards long-term solutions by empowering people with essential services.

Key Features of Service-Oriented NGOs:

Focus on Essential Services: Provide healthcare, education, vocational training, and rehabilitation programs.

Sustainable Development: Aim to improve long-term quality of life rather than just offering immediate aid.

Collaboration with Governments & Businesses: Often partners with government agencies and corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives.

Impact-Driven Approach: Measure success based on social impact rather than just financial contributions.

Examples of Service-Oriented NGOs in India:

Smile Foundation — Provides education and healthcare for underprivileged children.

Teach for India — Focuses on improving education by placing trained fellows in low-income schools.

SEWA (Self-Employed Women’s Association) — Supports women with training, employment, and financial aid.

C) Advocacy NGOs

Advocacy NGOs focus on influencing policies, laws, and social attitudes to bring about systemic changes. Rather than providing direct services, these organizations work to raise awareness, build public support, and push for legislative or societal changes to improve conditions for vulnerable groups.

Key Features of Advocacy NGOs:

Policy Influence: They aim to change laws, policies, or government practices for the betterment of marginalized communities.

Public Awareness: They engage in campaigns, protests, and media outreach to highlight issues and raise awareness.

Research & Advocacy: Often conduct research to inform policy decisions, highlighting the needs and rights of specific groups.

Examples of Advocacy NGOs in India:

CRY (Child Rights and You) — Advocates for child rights, working to ensure children’s access to education, health, and protection.

National Alliance of People’s Movements (NAPM) — Works to advance social justice by advocating for marginalized communities’ rights.

The Center for Internet and Society (CIS) — Focuses on digital rights, advocating for privacy, freedom of expression, and internet access.

The Lawyers Collective — Provides legal aid and advocates for human rights, gender equality, and environmental protection.

D) Participatory NGOs

Participatory NGOs actively involve local communities in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of development projects. They focus on community-led development and empowerment, ensuring that the people directly affected by the project have a voice in decision-making.

Key Features:

Community-Led Development: Local people take part in all stages of the project.

Empowerment: Focus on building local capacity for sustainable change.

Sustainability: Projects are designed to continue benefiting the community after the NGO’s involvement ends.

Inclusive Decision-Making: Community members shape the project’s direction.

Examples of Participatory NGOs in india:

Barefoot College: Empowers rural women by training them to become solar engineers.

Gram Vikas: Focuses on water and sanitation, with local communities in charge.

E) Hybrid NGOs

Dual Mission: They pursue both social impact and financial viability, often through income-generating activities.

Innovative Models: Use business-like strategies, such as selling products or services, while maintaining their focus on social causes.

Sustainability: Revenue generated helps fund their social programs, reducing dependence on donations and grants.

Scalability: Many hybrid NGOs scale their impact through business ventures, which can expand faster than traditional NGOs.

Examples in India:

SELCO India: Provides solar energy solutions with a business approach.

Goonj: Turns urban waste into products for rural communities.

Barefoot College: Combines solar energy training with a social enterprise model.

– Organizations that combine different functionalities, such as offering services while advocating for policy change.

Floating on Benadryl but did manage to make it to the Gender Mela seminars and programme at JU today. Attended a panel on the overlap between trans queer activism and disability justice. Also received a copy of a queer love zine published by Daxayoni Publishing House where my poem "Prefer Not to Say" is featured.

The poem is about structural invisibility of trans folk in administration and academia in India, where we are often reduced to a nebulous category of gender beside, man, woman and other. Maybe I'll post it on my newsletter.

At a time when Indian queer scholarship, pedagogy and activism is dominated by privileged folks, academic pundit types (think Spivak / Roy variety) and exploitative NGOs, it was so nice to hear these grassroots activists and artists have a discussion. And I also met some friends who were speaking for the panel!! As I'm chronically ill, I don't often get to meet queer folks except of online spaces, but today was a special day. Very happy.

Summary

This project, led by an Indian NGO Mahila Housing Sewa Trust (MHT), is on a mission to organise and empower women in low-income households to increase their resilience to impacts of climate change. To date, MHT’s initiatives have helped 25,000 low-income families across seven cities in India, Bangladesh and Nepal.

The project is centred around an integrated model wherein women take the lead through collective action and technology incubation to devise locally relevant, pro‐poor, gender-sensitive and climate-resilient solutions. For example, women were trained to be energy auditors who encourage households to switch to more efficient products, forming a women-led distribution network of green energy and building products. Other solutions include using sprinkler taps to reduce the flow of water, harvesting rainwater, and other behavioural changes leading to more than 60% of households reporting to have increase in water quantity and more than 32% having sufficient water during summers.

Though projects like these, MHT is empowering women to take action against four major climate risks: heat waves, flooding and inundation, water scarcity, and water-vector-borne diseases. These slow‐onset events attract less attention but frequently impact poor people, particularly women, the most.

Key Facts

Mahila Housing Sewa Trust (MHT) has helped organise 114 Community Action Groups, who have reached out to 27,227 women in 107 slums. Of the women they’ve worked with, 8,165 women were recorded to demonstrate an increase in “knowledge seeking behavior”. 

Over 1,500 women have been trained as climate-saathis, who are responsible for communicating the issue of climate change with their community in their local language. Through this communications exercise, the proportion of participants who viewed climate change as an act of god reduced from 26 % to 9 %.

To date, around 28,000 energy audits have been undertaken in slum communities, which have saved families over USD 700,000 per annum in electricity costs. These money and energy saving interventions have included installing over 200 modular roofs and 500 roofs with solar reflective white paint, while having also led to a reduction of 105 tonnes of CO2e per annum. 

The Problem

It is estimated that over 190.7 million people live in informal settlements in South Asia. These settlements are often densely populated and highly vulnerable to even the slightest changes to our climate.

MHT’s project is building the resilience capacities of over 25,000 low-income families living in slums and informal settlements across seven cities in three South Asian countries, including: Ahmedabad, Bhopal, Ranchi, Jaipur, Bhubaneswar (India); Dhaka (Bangladesh), and Kathmandu (Nepal).

Their initiatives empower women to lead local mitigation efforts to prevent key climate risks such as heatwaves, flooding and inundation, and climate change related incidences of water-vector borne diseases. These types of slow-onset events tend to attract less global attention, while also disproportionately impacting low-income households. Women are commonly the primary caregiver and responsible for household management, which renders them more vulnerable to these types of stresses.

The Solution

MHT has championed a women-led empowerment model for building climate resilience in the slums of South Asia, focused around organising groups of women in their communities. Their model builds upon the conviction that if the urban poor are provided with requisite knowledge to undertake vulnerability and risk assessments, and are equipped with available resilient‐technologies, they will be able to devise and implement locally relevant and pro‐poor, climate-resilient solutions

The project model emphasizes women taking the lead through collective action and technology incubation in order to devise these locally relevant, gender-sensitive and climate-resilient solutions. To make this possible, MHT, assists with facilitating the required infrastructure, institutional and financial mechanisms.

Helping the Planet

Through empowering women, this project is also helping reduce the emissions associated with the production of electricity in these communities. For example, one of MHT’s core initiatives trains women to become energy auditors and educate households on the nuances of energy use such as bill calculation, wattage consumption and energy wastage. As energy auditors, these women also encourage households to switch to more energy efficient products.

These trained energy auditors also act as grassroots level micro-entrepreneurs, by forming a women-led distribution network of green energy and building products. Energy auditors promote the installation of energy efficient LED bulbs and lights, modular roofs, airlite ventilator, many other solutions.

Helping People

While women from low-income families are often the most vulnerable as they have the least access to information and resources, MHT believes they also have the greatest potential to be empowered to become agents of change.

The rationale for the project is to provide these women with the requisite knowledge to undertake vulnerability and risk assessments, while also equipping them with the available climate resilient-technologies. This means they will be able to identify climate induced vulnerabilities, minimize risk and adopt locally relevant climate resilient solutions. In turn, these women also can potentially play a role in influencing better city planning and governance for pro-poor adaptation and resilience actions.

Spillover Effect

Currently, MHT is in the process of training other grassroots organisations to reproduce similar women-led groups in areas such as Bhubaneswar, Dhaka and Kathmandu.

While many other urban resilience programs are top-down and externally driven, MHT has made a concerted effort to ensure their initiatives are low-cost, contextually-appropriate and participatory.  Urban poor that have been organized under this program gather critical planning data to design their own solutions and negotiate with other urban stakeholders, as well as test and manage implementation of these solutions.

Through empowering women to help improve their homes and communities, MHT’s initiatives have also triggered behavior change in communities towards making more informed decisions. This has in turn empowered them with the necessary knowledge to demand improved government services, thus proving that this concept can be expanded to other communities throughout the world.

LGBTQI+ Rights in Bangladesh 🇧🇩

LGBTQIA+ rights are heavily suppressed in Bangladesh.Generally LGBTQ+ community face stigmatization and marginalization among the broader population.Hijra as third gender has somewhat more tolerance in the state.However, some islamic radicalists & conservative muslims consider hijras as immoral.

LGBTQ+ pride flag of Bangladesh

Legal Status of Homosexuality

Homosexuality is illegal under under the British-inherited Penal Code Section 377 since 1860.Penal Code section 377 of 1860 forbids anal sex & oral sex, regardless of the gender and sexual orientation of the participants.Sentences include a maximum penalty of life imprisonment or 10 years imprisonment with fine.There is some evidences of the law being enforced in recent years, & LGBTQ+ people are regularly subjected to discrimination and violence.

In 2009 & 2013 UPR cycle, Bangladesh refused to overturn Penal Code Section 377.Therefore law enforcers often use Section 54 (Code of Criminal Procedure) to harass gender & sexual minorities as it allows arrest of anyone without a warrant.

History

Homosexuality was widely tolerated & accepted in south asia untill 1860s. Delhi Sultanate,Mughals also tolerated several sexual fluidity & gender variance.There were homoerotic & homoromantic writing in Islamic literature.

From 1750-1830 female homoromantic narratives were documented in Urdu poetry.Gender-diverse folks enjoyed high prestige during Mughal era.Hijra identity is documented to have evolved during the Delhi Sultanate (1226-1526).Most of them were served in royal harem.Furthermore they were rulers,military commanders,guardians of harem,manual laborers,political advisors in Mughal era.The dominant school of Islamic thought in the mughal empire, hanafism was much more tolerant of sexuality; did not mandate punishment for homosexuality.During the reign of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb, Fatawa-e-Alamgiri, which mandated several types of punishments for homosexuality.

Since 1850s, British colonist started criminalizing diverse sexuality & genders in Indian Subcontinent.Section 377 Penal Code of British Raj which criminalizes sexual minorities, was enacted on 6 October 1860 & went into force on 1 January 1862.British labeled hijra as criminal group under the ''Criminal Tribe Act of 1871.Later started a widespread campaign against this sexual minority.As a result, hijras became a marginalised, ostracized group in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh & Nepal.British colonists deployed various strategies to eradicate hijras & sexual diverse folks, whom they saw as "a breach of public decency. Such barbaric colonial laws were carried over into the Pakistan following the partition of India in 1947, and continue to be part of Bangladesh's legal code since its independence from Pakistan in 1971.

Discrimination & Violence

LGBTQI+ rights in Bangladesh has been heavily affected by radical political islamism, violent extremism,societal values & morals. LGBTQI+ people often faces violence, bullying, rape, sexual harassment,hate crimes,etc.Some are forced for conversion therapy in order to change their sexuality.Bangladesh's LGBTQ+ rights groups,NGOs reported official discrimination in employment, housing, healthcare and access to government services.

Transgender Rights

Transgender women,non-binary,gender non-confirming & intersex persons are traditionally known as Hijra in South Asia.Although Hijra umbrella term does not include trans male or FTM transgender.

In November 2013, the government of Bangladesh recognized the Hijra community as the 'third gender or sex'. Subsequently, the cabinet issued a notification on 22 January 2014 regarding the recognition of third gender/sex.On January 26, 2014, a gazette was published recognizing the gender identity of the transgender community.Trans people cannot legally undergoes a gender reassignment surgery in Bangladesh.However there have been several reports of gender transitions,gender change treatment or sex reassignment surgery.

In early 1990s a transsexual woman Hosne Ara Begum's story was published in a bengali educational magazine.The magazine covered the journey of her gender transition & made her a big sensation in Bangladesh that time.From 2010-2013, 18 surgeries were performed in Dhaka Medical College Hospital,despite the availability of treatment at nominal or free cost.Although this gender transition treatment has been conducted in the country illegally for more than two decades.

''Hijra Life Welfare Programme,'' conducted under the Bangladesh Social Welfare Department from 2012-2013, to educate and develop school-going Hijra students,to provide monthly special allowance to disabled & senior Hijras.Bangladesh Social Welfare Department also increased the skills of the Hijra population through vocational training and to involve them in income generating activities and to bring them into the mainstream of the society & provide financial assistance after training.Since 2019, trans women who identify as Hijra can choose third gender option on National Identity Card.

Petition For PIL

Introduction

Public Interest Litigation (PIL) is a powerful tool in India that allows citizens to seek justice for public welfare issues. It enables individuals, groups, or organizations to approach the court in matters concerning the violation of fundamental rights, government negligence, or issues affecting the general public. PILs have played a significant role in bringing about social change, environmental protection, and government accountability.

What is a Public Interest Litigation (PIL)?

PIL is a type of legal action filed in a court of law for the protection of public interest. Unlike regular cases, where only the affected person can file a petition, any concerned citizen or organization can file a PIL on behalf of the affected group or society.

Legal Basis for PIL in India

PILs in India are based on:

Article 32 of the Indian Constitution (for filing in the Supreme Court).

Article 226 of the Indian Constitution (for filing in High Courts).

Section 133 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) (for public grievances).

The concept of PIL was first introduced in India in the late 1970s, and Justice P.N. Bhagwati and Justice V.R. Krishna Iyer played key roles in expanding its scope.

When Can You File a PIL?

You can file a PIL for issues concerning:

1. Violation of Fundamental Rights (e.g., denial of basic human rights, discrimination).

2. Environmental Protection (e.g., deforestation, pollution, illegal construction).

3. Government Negligence or Corruption (e.g., misuse of public funds, lack of basic facilities).

4. Public Health and Safety (e.g., lack of medical facilities, unsafe working conditions).

5. Rights of the Underprivileged (e.g., bonded labor, child labor, lack of education).

Who Can File a PIL?

Any individual citizen who is concerned about a public issue.

Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) or social groups.

Legal professionals or activists fighting for public welfare.

The petitioner (person filing the PIL) does not need to be personally affected by the issue but must prove that it affects the larger public interest.

How to File a PIL?

Filing a PIL is a straightforward process, but it requires proper documentation and legal reasoning. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Step 1: Identify the Issue

Ensure that the issue affects the public at large and not just an individual concern.

Gather facts, evidence, and relevant documents to support your case.

Step 2: Approach the Right Court

Supreme Court (Under Article 32) – For issues of national importance or violation of fundamental rights.

High Court (Under Article 226) – For state or regional issues.

District Court – For local or municipal concerns.

Step 3: Draft the Petition

A PIL petition must include:

Name and details of the petitioner.

The issue and how it affects the public.

Previous efforts (if any) made to resolve the issue.

Legal provisions supporting the claim.

Relief sought from the court.

Step 4: Submit the Petition

File the petition in person or through a lawyer in the appropriate court.

Attach all supporting documents and affidavits.

Step 5: Court Proceedings

The court reviews the petition and may issue notices to the concerned authorities.

If the case is accepted, hearings will take place, and the court will pass orders.

Landmark PIL Cases in India

Several PILs have led to historic judgments in India, including:

1. M.C. Mehta v. Union of India (1986) – Led to environmental protection laws, including restrictions on industrial pollution.

2. Vishaka v. State of Rajasthan (1997) – Resulted in laws against sexual harassment at the workplace.

3. People’s Union for Democratic Rights v. Union of India (1982) – Ensured fair wages and protection of labor rights.

4. Olga Tellis v. Bombay Municipal Corporation (1985) – Recognized the right to livelihood as part of the right to life.

Things to Keep in Mind Before Filing a PIL

A PIL should not be filed for personal gain or political motives.

Courts reject frivolous PILs that waste judicial time.

A PIL should be well-researched and backed by evidence.

The petitioner should first try to approach the relevant authorities before going to court.

Conclusion

Public Interest Litigation is an important legal tool for ensuring justice, protecting fundamental rights, and holding authorities accountable. It empowers ordinary citizens to stand up for the greater good of society. If you come across a serious issue that affects the public, consider filing a PIL to bring about positive change. However, it is always advisable to consult a legal expert before proceeding.

Why Should You Donate In-Kind to Help Those in Need?

Helping the needy does not always have to be done through cash. Perhaps the most effective way to help the underprivileged is through in-kind donations. This includes giving food, medicine, laptops, and other important items instead of giving money. Many NGOs and charities accept in-kind donations to be able to help people directly.

You ensure that your contribution is effectively used when you donate in kind. Many children who are poor and underprivileged do not have proper school supplies, warm clothes, and nutritious food. The donation of stationery and other things can directly help them.

The advantage of this type of donation is transparency. Donors may see clearly where their contributions go and how they're put to use. This builds trust and makes sure help reaches those who need it most. PARD INDIA welcomes in-kind donations to help provide essential resources to the underprivileged.

This notably affects the quality of education and the child's learning outcomes. Curriculum Development and Teacher Training Education NGOs in India sometimes design and implement curriculum frameworks for pupils from different social and economic backgrounds. This is in addition to developing learning materials that are suitable for a child’s age, language, and practical life skills. Their work is more than about preparing children with what is in the textbooks, but how to think creatively, critically and embrace all aspects of life. Community Participation Education NGOs in India appreciate the fact that education is not only about learning that takes place in the classroom, but the type of support and awareness that exists in the community. They try to involve the parents, opinion leaders, and other stakeholders to appreciate the importance of education. Such engagement at the grassroots level is helpful in reducing dropout rates and improving education standards. Key Educational NGO in the Country
