Group formation With a minimum of 16 and maximum 30 members a primary landless group (separately for female and male) is formed. The reason behind having a separate group for women is both for strategic reasons of giving space to women to enable them to empower themselves and also due to the prevailing socio-religious bias, which stresses exclusion and seclusion of women from society. |

Nijera Kori cultural activities are an integral part of mobilisation process. The purpose of cultural activities is to develop social awareness about disparities and all sorts of injustices and deprivations, remove prejudices from society and strengthen solidarity among the masses by promoting human values through cultural practices. With this aim in view and to develop cultural movement of common people Nijera Kori organises different types of cultural activities such as cultural discussion, people's drama, people's songs, paintings exhibition, cultural training and weeklong cultural procession where the true picture of the society, sorrows and sufferings of the poor, causes of these sufferings and means of solution are depicted in words, songs, gestures, postures and other forms of presentation before the audience by the participating group members. |

Nijera Kori illustrates an important distinction: between the ‘voices of the poor’ and ‘voices for the poor’. In the former, it is the poor themselves who enunciate voice and make demands, while in the latter, other organisations or individuals speak on their behalf. Speaking on behalf of others is the premise behind advocacy work; enabling the poor to speak in their own voice is the premise behind social mobilisation. Nijera Kori’s strategy can be seen to straddle both dimensions. Nijera Kori has sought to compensate for the direct absence of its groups at the local, national and international level through different strategies. These include: Nijera Kori participates in national and international network and advocacy initiative. Building supportive coalitions with civil society groups on specific issues as well as on a sustained basis. Carrying out public interest litigation if required. Participating in policy-making processes in an advisory capacity. Organising local level consultations to influence public policy.
