Process and Impact Documents
A lot of organizations work well at grassroots level but very few of them have indigenous capacity to document the same and come out with qualitative publications. At Prayatn, we understand the importance of qualitative documentation and publication and, therefore, lay make intensive efforts in this regard. We build capacity of our grassroots level team and encourage the same to document their work as an ongoing process. At the same time, we have developed a cell to conceptualize the documents, guide the grassroots level team for the their preparation, translate these documents If required, edit them and design it so that it takes a shape that is felt interesting by the readers and are able to communicate the desired message to them in effective manner. Through this process, we have developed several process as well as impact documents. Of late, we have ventured into video documentation as well.
