Looking back to the significance of its genesis, BISAP certainly feels proud to be beside the unnerved and disadvantaged community people with its prime mission„ all people rather than working for the peoples is essential for sustainable development. The coming days stood as quite significant while added some extra pace for BISAP in concentrating more on establishing the people’s rights.The Community Managed Disaster Risk Reduction (CMDRR) has already created the opportunity for cementing of a better information, standardization and uniformity of services at all levels, structured programme management, community accessibility, acceptability and empowerment of the civil society especially the community allies, and the women and specially the children sensitization government institutions and policy-makers. Since inception BISAP has been providing integrated Development services for the sector promotion in cooperation with its beneficiaries, community people and other stakeholders. 

With time BISAP, with the Consortium networking and the private sector actors, has been able to mark a significant contribution to the sector promotion as well as to establish a favorable sectoral policy environment. In this age of globalization people have been facing many new challenges concerning their livelihood & their quet. Climate Justice, environment, health and education, social entrepreneurship , child right and prevent trafficking,capacity building of distress children, local Administration in the civil society has been the prime focus. BISAP has been able to serve a significant number of mobilized community groups bring maximum benefit to the communities we work-with. Alongside its programme facilitation BISAP, in consortium with its apex networking image has been running effective advocacy in the sector with a fine blending of uninterrupted and up-to-date information services. BISAP continuous advocacy and networking for a favorable sectoral policy environment has marked a significant contribution to formulate and implement different sectoral policy and strategic principles which have ultimately marked a significant positive sign for the decrease and violation of fundamental human rights and has been shown to hinder community development, potentially leading to life long physical or psychological damage. The achievements and vow to continue our humble efforts to bring smile to the face o  many more vulnerable & disadvantage people ins and outs of BISAP‟s efforts and achievements. BISAP feels that whatever success it has achieved so far, is the success of the BISAP‟s development partners, the community people and other respective stakeholders, who have been providing their all out support to BISAP efforts. The policy formulating body of BISAP deserves special thanks and gratitude for directing the organization dynamically while dedication of its work-force is well acknowledged for enabling the BISAP‟s contribute to the sector promotion.
