Pragya (US) is a non-governmental development organisation working for the sustainable development of remote regions and deprived peoples, and conservation of the fragile ecosystems in such regions, worldwide. Pragya in the US seeks to develop awareness of development issues, particularly with respect to marginalized sections in underserved regions of South Asia and East Africa, and other similar areas in the developing world. We also work to raise resources and support for our grassroots work in developing countries, conduct necessary research, monitor funded projects and communicate about our work with stakeholders and the public in the US.

The current geographical focus of our work includes the Himalayan region in South Asia spanning India and Nepal, and the highlands and arid savannahs of East Africa spanning the countries of Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia. Our work in the US is delivered through a small office in New York.
