Collaborations

  Funding Bodies

 

AT India strongly believes that implementing large-scale livelihood and enterprise initiatives in order to truly ‘make a difference’ is only possible through meaningful collaborations with other organizations with similar vision and goals. Consequently, the organization has been liasoning with a number of international and grass-roots, non-governmental and government organizations. These collaborations have enriched its perspective manifold and enabled AT India to adopt best practices endorsed by others in the development sector. Likewise, much of AT India’s effort goes in imparting specialized training and inputs to other NGOs in the field of conservation and livelihoods.
