Who We Are

CONARE (Community Action for Rural Empowerment) is a registered non-profit society established on 17 February 1999 by Mr. M. A. Saleem, with a vision to empower marginalized communities through sustainable development and community participation.

CONARE works towards the upliftment and empowerment of marginalized and deprived communities, especially tribal communities such as Chenchu, Lambadas and Eurukala, along with Scheduled Castes, poor farmers and minority communities—with a focus on women, children and youth.
