My experience in CYSD, a more than three and half decades old development organization, is only 6 months. I got the chance to work with such a huge organization that I have never worked with before. Here in CYSD, there are great opportunities to advance one’s career. The organization offers the benefits learning ethical values and provides the chance get socialized with its line institutions through field studies.

During my short period of association, the Organization has systematized four-five national as well as state level conferences/workshops, where I was given the chances to actively participate with the intention of enhancing my knowledge domains, acquire / exchange new ideas, thoughts and learnings.

More importantly, I feel proud being part of a well-known Knowledge Hub of CYSD i.e. Odisha Budget and Accountability Centre (OBAC). My OBAC team members are competent, quite supportive and respect one’s innovative ideas and suggestions. Here the workloads are distributed and decisions are undertaken with mutual understating of its members. I have to learn many more from this pioneering organization.

The organization is having an exciting and clear strategic direction. It also encourages staff members to get involved in different works depending upon one’s interest and ability to exhibit initiations.

I wish CYSD go a long way in serving the poorest of the poor in hard to reach locations of the State and beyond.
