Since 2024, ATMA Foundation has been actively working to strengthen non-profit organisations (NPOs) and civil society organisations across Kerala.
Through training programmes, workshops and collaborative learning platforms, ATMA helps organisations strengthen their governance, improve operational effectiveness and build long-term sustainability.
Our initiatives focus on practical skills in compliance, fundraising, organisational development, digital communication and impact assessment.
Launched in 2025, the ATMA Social Impact Conclave brings together civil society organisations, CSR professionals, sector experts and development practitioners for three days of learning, networking and collaboration.
Through expert sessions, panel discussions and practical workshops, the Conclave promotes stronger governance, professional practices, organisational sustainability and greater social impact.
Held at TGSM Saraswathi Vidya Nikethan, Thrissur, the inaugural Conclave brought together NGO leaders and development professionals from across Kerala.
Sessions addressed CSR, organisational governance, the Social Stock Exchange, monitoring and evaluation, impact assessment, government partnerships and professional social work.
The Conclave encouraged participants to adopt more accountable, evidence-based and sustainable organisational practices.
The second edition focused on strengthening organisational systems through intensive learning and practical workshops.
Topics included governance, CSR, fundraising, compliance, digital presence, branding, impact reporting and organisational development.
The Conclave also created opportunities for peer learning, collaboration and discussions on emerging funding opportunities.
