Founder's Voice

Dear friends and co-travellers,
Welcome to the Seba Jagat family.
Since our humble beginnings in 1992, Seba Jagat has been driven by the belief that every individual deserves to live a life of dignity, self-respect, and equal opportunity. Rooted in the principles of Gandhian philosophy, our journey began in the heart of Urladani Panchayat, where we closely listened to the voices of rural and tribal communities and pledged to stand beside them in their journey for a just, participatory, and sustainable society. Over the years, Seba Jagat has evolved, shaped by the hopes and aspirations of the people we serve. Our mission has always been holistic development—addressing not just the challenges but the interconnections between them. From securing land rights and promoting sustainable agriculture to enhancing children’s well-being, improving health and education, fostering climate resilience, and empowering women and youth, we believe in tackling the root causes of deprivation through an integrated approach. Through the dedication of our team, the strength of our partnerships, and the support of communities, Seba Jagat has grown to touch lives across multiple districts in Odisha. Every initiative we undertake is driven by the vision of building a society that thrives on inclusion, participation, and sustainability. With deep gratitude, we sincerely thank everyone who has supported Seba Jagat's journey. Your belief in our mission has inspired and strengthened us in building a just, participatory, and sustainable society. Let us continue this shared path, ensuring dignity, self-reliance, and resilience reach every life we touch. Looking ahead, I warmly invite you to join us in this transformative journey. Your involvement and support will help us create lasting change and build a just, inclusive, and sustainable society for future generations.

Thanking you
Satyanarayan Pattanayak
