Welcome To Baanhn Beli
a friend forever
Baanhn Beli is a phrase used in the Sindhi, Seraiki and Punjabi languages to say that someone is "a friend forever." Literally, however, the world "Baanhn Beli" means hand or arm and the work "Beli" means "Friend" so that a more direct expression of the phrase "Baanhn Beli" could be said to be "a helping hand".
On balance, as the two possible meanings are very close to each other, we prefer to use "a friend fore ever" as the more descriptive interpretation of the phrase.

Baanhn Beli Thematic Area !
Social mobilization is the foundation of our Program but we implements activities under below mentioned themes:
Disaster Preparedness and Management
Climate change, environmental degradation, population growth, increased urbanization, unsustainable development in hazard-prone areas, risky technologies, and growing social and economic inequalities have all contributed to a dramatic increase in the impact of disaster events. Many natural disasters are cyclical and to some degree predictable.
Poverty
Alleviation
BB is currently engaged in various donor supported programmes/ projects that target poverty alleviation through the typical approach of social mobilization and livelihoods improvement. The organization process involves all the poor households in grassroots level planning and implementation of community driven interventions.
Health &
Education
Since inception, Baanhn Beli is determined to promote basic education and strongly believes that education is a fundamental right of every child and only key to alleviate poverty and realization of sustainable rural development at grass root level. Baanhn Beli believes that all children have the right to learn from a quality education.
Livelihoods, Enterprise Development
Improving rural livelihoods and alleviating poverty in marginalized communities are the most critical development challenge in Sindh. The livelihood options are going to reduce day by day due to uncertainty and poor governance. The public sector is not much conscious about the alarming situations pertaining with livelihood and nutrition.
