Utthan began in 1981 when four women started working in the Bhal region of Gujarat, helping marginalised communities self-organise around livelihood issues and build local leadership. It works on drinking-water security, sanitation, sustainable agriculture, natural resource management and disaster response, and helped form the community-based organisation Mahiti in 1994.
