Rights, Resilience & Revival

strengthening Forest Rights Act (FRA) implementation, ecological justice, and sustainable development on the delta’s frontlines.

About Us

SJSM (Sundarban Jana Sramajibi Mancha) is a grassroots, people-led platform of workers, fishers, forest-dependent families, women, youth, and local volunteers across the Sundarbans. We organize communities to claim lawful rights, protect life and livelihood, and respond to everyday crises—cyclones, embankment breaches, salinity, displacement, and human–wildlife conflict. We work through awareness, community mobilization, legal support, policy advocacy, and cultural initiatives. Our strength is collective action: listening to the ground, building unity, and taking practical steps for justice, safety, and a dignified future.
