Rural Development Program
Holistic Life through 5 H Program (
Healthcare, Hygiene, Human Values And Harmony In Diversity) 

 

The 5H program aims at ensuring that every rural area/village has Homes for the homeless, Health careHygiene,Human Values and Harmony in diversity. Set up in 1997, 5H catalyzes social transformation that aims to eradicate poverty, misery, disease and ensure peace and harmony in rural and tribal areas worldwide.

The youth from the local community undergo the Youth Leadership Training Program (YLTP). This gives them the skills, motivation and abilities to initiate and lead service projects in their own villages and localities based on their needs.

Only a strong spiritual foundation brings self esteem and self confidence that is unshakeable. It is this combination of spirituality, and skills and leadership training that ensures the long-term effectiveness and sustainability of this program.

The individuals and communities at the grassroots become self-reliant both socially and economically. Further, the effects are long-term and sustainable.

Vilasrao Deshmukh
Chief Minister, Maharashtra at a gathering of half a million people in Mumbai, Nov 2006
The Art of Living has given a new lease of life and stopped the suicides (in Vidarbha). This is what His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has been able to do, for which the Government is very happy. I am happy that the organization has given farmers the strength to live.

I gave up alcohol and tobacco after the training workshop. It helped me to regain my confidence. There was a time when I used to lease my land to other farmers. The chemical-free farming skills I have learnt have given me the confidence to cultivate my own land.
Jayant Bhole
Coordinator, Project Vidharbha - Swavalamban Programme
There has not been a single instance of suicide in the 509 villages we have worked in so far. There are about 1, 000 villages in the Amravati region of Vidarbha. We are training more youth leaders to reach out to all the villages.
Devendra Borde
A farmer from Vidarbha
Before Art of Living, there was depression and debt everywhere. I'm confident that with the zero budget farming taught in the course, the produce will improve and debts will be cleared.
