Niswass

National Institute of Social Work and Social Sciences, with its well known acronym ‘NISWASS’ was founded in 1971 by Dr. Radhakant Nayak, Former Secretary to Government of India. The Institute has been registered as a Society under the Societies Registration Act 1860 with the objective of supplementing the efforts of Governments in helping

communities that are struggling to come up on their own. It sought to realise the vision of an Institute engaging itself in research, consultancy, training and action programmes in social, economic, educational, and cultural spheres. The difference in the approach of NISWASS is undertaking these in an integrated manner, for the growth and development of the disadvantaged, the poorest of the poor.
