LakesHow We Operate Even with the best intentions, an organization cannot succeed if it lacks effectivecoordination. That is why Lakes takes pride in its organizational structure. Our chiefadministrative entity is the general body, which consists of 22 members who decide on ourprojects and budgets. The general body also elected the governing board, a 15 memberteam that supervises the planning and implementation of projects. From day to day, theLakes director handles the organization's activities, overseen By the secretary of the governingboard.Each individual Lakes project is delegated to a project coordinator at the main office insawai madhopur. The project coordinator manages the administrative side of the projectand works frequently with field center coordinators at one or more of lakes field centers inthe "mewar- braj sector". The field center coordinators manage grassroots implementationof the project, collaborating closely with village development committees and othercommunity- based organizations. Additionally, each project receives crucial support fromvillage residents, field workers, volunteers and partner organizations.The strength of our organizational structure lies in the hard- work and dedication of ourstaff. We employ 10 full-time salary based and 18 non salary based as a volunteer staffmembers and 73 part-time zero salary based staff cum field-center members, working withthe nearly 20 field working point. The professional backgrounds of these staff members areas varied as their personalities. Our team includes education specialists, engineers,advocates, soil & farming experts, veterinarians, horticulturists, economists, socialscientists.No organization is an island, and despite the capability of our staff, we could not functionwithout the support of dozens of partner organizations at the grassroots, national andinternational levels. In the modern world, a robust network of institutions is more than thesum of its parts, able to tackle complex problems through innovative and dynamic forms ofcollaboration.

LakesRural Development Activity Rural Water Security- -The water famine is both a tragedy and a paradox – as India is well endowed with water,and it is a renewable recourse. In Mewat-braj the method used by Lakes in rural watermanagement are : contour trenches, gully plugs, check dams, receiving traditional ponds,recharging wells, injecting wells, soak pits, and deep plugging with chisel.Lakes water-security works continuously, priority of drinking water and next to installrainwater-harvesting structures, using a combination of technical experts and traditionalknowledge to find the best practices of pond, river, lake and taanka’s etc.Rural Health Care"Mewat- Braj sector" take a toll on human health. Lack of clean water enables the spreadof disease, lack of food inhibits adequate nutrition, lack of money prevents people fromANNUAL- REPORT 2011-12Page 15

Lakesreceiving proper care, and lack of awareness propagates misleading information. All ofthese factors constantly threaten the health of rural communities. Furthermore, healthcenters are few and far between, so the people of the "Mewat- Braj sector" must travel longdistances to seek treatment. Women, children, and the elderly are particularly at risk forhealth problems.Lakes through its community health program has been able to provide access to healthservices to persons by medical check-ups, treatment at the clinics and medical camps conducted atvarious locations in 'Mewat- Braj'.In rural 'Badi & 8 Meal Center', the Lakes provide health services through: Health education (hygiene, nutrition, immunization).Training of community level workers, community health volunteers and traditionalbirth attendants.
