The Extension Work Programme with its specific mandate to work for the less privileged sections of the society and our efforts are to extend educational programmes that will enhance and improve the quality of life of such groups in par with today’s socio economic changes taking place with the technology driven knowledge based competitive economy drive. Extension Education and Field Outreach activities always work to encourage people to improve their conditions in all dimensions of their lives.
The development of people is the ultimate goal of Extension education and Field Outreach activities. Providing research-based information, teaching people new knowledge and skills, helping them to improve production or increase income.
The methods of Extension education and Field Outreach activities arise from proven principles, and the most effective Extension Educators and Field Outreach activists know and use a variety of teaching methods.
Extension work is most successful as it involves learners in its programs so thoroughly that they set their own goals, apply new ideas and receive feedback from others about their progress. Extension does not dictate how people will solve problems or make decisions for them. Rather, it fosters the democratic ideal of self-governance by encouraging each person or group to choose the best among a variety of options.
