About us
 Sahbhagi Shikshan Kendra (SSK) a center for Participatory
Learning was established in 1990 at Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh). The
Kendra's emergence was in response to the developmental scenario
of the Hindi-speaking belt of India. Large numbers of Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) were working for the upliftment of the marginalised/deprived
and weaker sections of the society, but the institutional capacity
for effectively managing their projects and programmes was inadequate,
and thus were depended on other well-established organisations
for financial and non-financial support. Lack of professional
inputs, competency, and aptitude curbed the development process.
SSK was thus established to provide systematic programme management
support to the CSOs working at the grassroots.
