A Role Based on Responsibility
The role of a Prerak is based on personal commitment and willingness to participate in village development.
01
It is not a conventional employment position, academic course or scholarship. It involves working with people, understanding local circumstances and helping communities carry forward agreed activities.
02
A Prerak is expected to contribute with consistency, maintain meaningful relationships with participating families and remain connected with the wider AKSG programme.
The nature and extent of involvement may vary depending on the individual and the village.
Who Can Become a Prerak?
The programme welcomes participation from individuals as well as married couples.
Individual Prerak
A person may participate individually, contributing their time, knowledge, skills and abilities to village-level activities and community coordination.
Prerak Couple
A married couple may participate together, sharing responsibilities and contributing according to their respective capabilities and circumstances.
Participation is not limited to people already living in rural areas. Individuals based in towns or cities may also contribute, provided they are able to remain actively involved in the work.
An Integrated Responsibility
A Prerak's work is connected with all five dimensions of AKSG, even when the person has particular experience or interest in one area.
01
Education & Sanskar
Supporting value education activities and local learning opportunities.
02
Health & Self-Regulation
Encouraging health awareness and responsible daily practices.

Production & Work
Connecting interested families with relevant agricultural, skill-development and production initiatives.
04
Exchange & Community Fund

05
Justice & Security

The Prerak is not expected to possess technical expertise in every dimension. The responsibility is to understand how the different areas relate to village life and help connect local participants with appropriate people and organisations.
