Aarohi is an organization for rural development that aims to respond to the needs of the people of Kumaon. The word ‘Aarohi’ means ascendance or growth: the growth of thought, creativity, and harmony. It was with this inspiring thought that Aarohi was established in 1992 with a vision to create ‘an equitable society’. Nestled in the picturesque village of Satoli, in Nainital district, our current efforts are focused on health, education, and livelihoods, with a history of also having worked in forestry. Women and children are at the heart of our integrated development work.
