About us...
Welcome to PRERANA – a people-centered organization working across rural, tribal, and coastal Andhra Pradesh to ignite development and inspire change.
PRERANA was initiated in 1997 by a committed team of professional women from diverse backgrounds—social work, law, engineering, human resource development, and management—who shared a deep passion for community development and social justice. Their vision was to build a platform that could bridge grassroots needs with institutional support, empowering the most vulnerable through participatory, inclusive, and sustainable approaches.
Since its inception, PRERANA has remained rooted in the communities it serves, working hand-in-hand with women, farmers, youth, tribal groups, fisherfolk, and artisans to create long-term impact.
Today, PRERANA continues to grow as a catalyst for positive change—promoting sustainable livelihoods, environmental stewardship, and gender equity across hundreds of villages in Andhra Pradesh.
Transforming lives through sustainable development.
