About Us
Mass Education and Development in Asia
Mass Education and Development in Asia (MEDIA) is a not-for-profit organization founded in 1992 to uplift marginalized communities through informal education, cultural initiatives, and media advocacy. Over the past three decades, MEDIA has grown significantly, partnering with leading institutions and producing over 50 documentaries on critical social issues. Its core focus areas include health, hygiene, education, women’s empowerment, training and capacity building, and fostering dialogue— all with a commitment to promoting inclusive development and the dignified integration of marginalized groups into mainstream society.
MISSION
MEDIA’s core mission is to elevate marginalised communities through informal education and mass media, fostering inclusive development and social change. The organisation strives to integrate these communities into mainstream society with dignity and opportunity.
Inclusive Development and Social Change
Through it all, MEDIA’s core mission remained steadfast: to leverage informal education, cultural initiatives, and mass media as tools for social change. Its goal was to foster inclusive development and give a voice to the unheard. Over the years, the organisation steadily grew, attracting new collaborators and broadening its scope. Yet, despite this evolution, MEDIA’s fundamental purpose never wavered—building a society where marginalised communities are no longer left behind but are fully integrated into the social fabric with dignity and opportunity.
Three Decades of Service
Today, as MEDIA looks back on decades of service, its early work continues to inspire its ongoing mission. What began as a small initiative in the slums of East Delhi has transformed into a dynamic organisation with a far-reaching impact, all while staying true to its vision of inclusive development and amplifying the voices of the underserved.
VISION
Mass Education & Development In Asia (MEDIA) envisions a world where systemic, long-lasting change replaces temporary relief, empowering marginalized communities to thrive with dignity and equality. Our mission is to ensure that no one is left behind—amplifying voices, addressing unmet needs, and unlocking human potential. We are committed to fostering solidarity by uniting grassroots NGOs with shared ideologies on a common platform, enabling them to amplify their collective impact. Through collaboration, we believe strength multiplies, reach expands, and meaningful transformation becomes achievable.
From its humble beginnings over three decades ago as a small group of friends aspiring to make a difference, MEDIA has grown into a respected organization, championing the causes of those living on the margins of society. Guided by a clear vision and unwavering dedication, we focus on integrating marginalized communities into the fabric of mainstream society.
Empowerment Through Education and Awareness
At the core of MEDIA’s work is the belief that education and awareness are the most powerful tools for social transformation. By equipping marginalized groups with knowledge and skills, we empower them to navigate socio-economic barriers. Simultaneously, we use mass media—print, digital, audio-visual, and social platforms—to share their stories of resilience and triumph, inspiring empathy and action across diverse audiences.
A Bridge to Change
MEDIA serves as both a bridge and a megaphone, connecting grassroots NGOs to broader networks and amplifying their impact. By shining a spotlight on their achievements, we challenge stereotypes, confront inequality, and shape public opinion to foster a more inclusive society.
A Commitment to Inclusive Development
Our work goes beyond addressing immediate needs. MEDIA is dedicated to breaking cycles of exclusion, advocating for systemic change, and building a future where marginalized voices are truly valued. As we continue to grow, our vision remains steadfast: to create a just world where every individual has an equal opportunity to thrive.
