1. Livelihood.

   Empowering the community is the key to sustain the development process. One of the main pillars of empowerment is economic/livelihood sustainability. Our aims at economic sustainability of the target community by providing knowledge, skill/training, demonstration and backup support .

   The Self-Help Group is the main tool for development. In fact this lead one to be aware of his/her presents status and opt for betterment of his/her future. The SHG movement is being taken place in the area and now the community is eager and open to take up other livelihood options.

2. Disaster management .

3.Promotion of literacy

  Promote literacy through formal and nonformula education .establishing School in backward areas . 

4.Public Participation in governance

(PRI, Autonomous Council, PDS)

   Other important task is to empower SHGs/DMCs to get government facilities through Local governance like Gram Panchayat ,Mising Autonomous Council ,MLA & MP Development fund . The Orgnisation alaways encouraged SHG Members to get above funds for their development.

   Health camps are one of most important program conducted by PAD in the interior/flood effected  villages. Usually Health camps are organized before the rainy session .each year we have organized around 4 camps. In the year 2008 PAD conducted 15 health camp in collaboration with IGSSS Guwahati in the food affected area .

Strategy: Socio-economic development through SHG/DMC by practices of sustainable livestock management, Disaster management and improved agriculture development. Also promote formal and informal education.

The improvement in economic status is a must for a human being to have dignified living standard. But this effort must come from the community itself. All this while various Charity organizations tried their best and raised the living standard of the poor  but   with the end of their charity projects, the standard which they had raised was back to the earlier or worst standard.
