About Lok Kalyan Bhumika Samiti

Grassroots Empowerment & Equity Since 2012

Transforming aspirations into action through equity, participatory planning, and grassroots resilience across Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh.

Who We Are

Lok Kalyan Bhumika Samiti (LKBS) is a registered non-profit development organisation established under the Madhya Pradesh Society Registration Act, 1973 (Reg. No. 14599/12). Headquartered in Jabalpur, LKBS has worked tirelessly since 2012 to uplift tribal, SC/ST, forest-dependent, and underserved communities.

To date, LKBS has impacted over 18,000 households across 500+ villages in 10 districts. Guided by participatory and rights-based approaches, we implement integrated interventions across sustainable livelihoods, women's empowerment, climate-smart agriculture, water resource management, skill training, and financial inclusion.

Through long-term partnerships with SBI Foundation, NABARD, Reliance Foundation, JK Cement, RCCPL, MP Tourism Board, and NULM, LKBS has scaled sustainable development models that empower communities to lead their own transformation.
