From Direction to Determination
In every solar lamp lit, enabling a child to study after dark. In every woman trained, transitioning from invisibility to entrepreneurship. In every farmer adopting sustainable practices, regenerating soil while building resilience.
Real development is not what external organizations do for communities. Real development is what communities do for themselves, with appropriate support.
The word "Disham" means direction. But direction alone is insufficient. Direction must be coupled with determination — communities' own resolve to transform their circumstances.
