Founded in 1986,People's Oriented Program Implementation(POPI) started its development mission through raising critical awareness, sensitizing and organizing the people living in abject poverty on development issues and building their leadership and management capability. The initial prime aim of the initiative was to alleviate poverty through empowering women. From that modest beginning, POPI has components to address the emerging needs of its program participants and today it is recognized as one of the leading development NGOs in Bangladesh. POPIs comprehensive multi-sectoral and holistic development program approach has been deeply appreciated by the people it works for as well as by the other relevant stakeholders. It has expanded its geographic presence across 23 districts of the country. In its long journey of 34 years, it remains firmly committed as ever to bring about long lasting positive changes in the lives of the common people of Bangladesh by rendering critical development services and promoting social justice,cohesion and harmony.
