Project Office: Imphal
SAATHII’s project office in Imphal, Manipur, was set up in January 2009. This was an important milestone in SAATHII’s growth and work in North-Eastern India. Our work in the region was initiated by the Kolkata Office in 2004 and later supported also by the Hyderabad Office (from 2007-08). Important focus areas so far have included building capacity of NGOs, LGBTQIA+ CBOs and PLHIV networks in community mobilization, gender and sexuality, human rights, sexual health, BCC development, PPTCT, documentation, and engagement with government and other civil society stakeholders. Current (as of 2026) projects include strengthening evidence based advocacy towards healthcare, education and social-legal protection for LGBTQIA+ communities, documenting historical and contemporary activisms around transgender rights, and strengthening LGBTQIA+ initiatives in other states of north-eastern India.
