About ESDO
Eco-Social Development Organization (ESDO) has started its journey in 1988 with a noble vision to stand in solidarity with the poor and
marginalized people. Being a peoples' centered organization, we envisioned for a society which will be free from inequality and injustice, a
society where no child will cry from hunger and no life will be ruined by poverty. Over the last thirty years of relentless efforts to make this
happen, we have embraced new grounds and opened up new horizons to facilitate the disadvantaged and vulnerable people to bring meaningful

effective services especially to the poor and disadvantaged people.
