Outside India, some features of the model are being implemented in Ethiopia under a Triangular Co-operation Project between India, Ethiopia and Norway. The goal of Sadguru NGO is to promote sustainable, equitable and eco-friendly socio-economic development of tribal in its project area. Sadguru has pioneered a new approach to tribal development, which uses water as a catalyst for development and focuses on community-based water resources development and management. Sadguru’s work over the last 30 years has led to substantial Improvement in the socio-economic conditions of thousands of poor households. Sadguru has also been instrumental in creating many NGOs and building their capacity through training, and provision of technical and financial support. All those NGOs are also engaged in tribal development through judicious use and management of local land and water resources. Consequently, Sadguru directly through its own projects and indirectly through other NGOs has brought under the fold of micro watershed development nearly 300,000 hectares of the land. Sadguru itself has developed nearly 500 water resource development projects which are being managed by empowered village communities successfully.
