Navnirman Samaj Vikas Kendra is a community-based organization and comes from a programme started with Inter Aide and was created in 1996 in Malad (W), North Mumbai, in the small district of Malwani.
In 2001, NSVK became a founding member of Uplift India Association and developed more intensively its micro finance activities initiated in 1998.
Today, Navnirman is working on 3 different programs: Family Development, Tuberculosis and Income Generation (i.e. micro-credit + micro-savings). Navnirman’s micro finance program is spread out in four branches in the slum areas of Northern Mumbai: New Collector Compound and Akashwani - both in Malwani, Malad (W) -, Charkop – in Kandivili (W) -, and Appapada – in Malad (E).

Navnirman is working with slum dwellers of urban economically depressed areas of Malwani, Charkop and Appapada. The approach to our "partners" (microentrepreneurs) is dissociated from religious, political, sexual and/or caste considerations.
Our "partners" are people whose entrepreneurship is frozen by a lack of financial means. They are excluded from the formal bank sector and our loans and savings products give them the capital necessary to start off a professional activity.
