Rayalaseema Development Trust (RYDT) is a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) established in 1969 by Vicente Ferrer (1920–2009) and Anne Ferrer, with its base in the Ananthapuramu district of Andhra Pradesh.
Recognising the vital role of people in driving sustainable development, RYDT runs a dedicated Centre for Human Resource Development. The focus is on strengthening capacities and nurturing skills that help individuals and organisations grow meaningfully.
Through thoughtfully designed training programmes, participatory approaches, and advisory services, the Centre supports the development sector in building stronger foundations.
At the heart of every organisation are its people, their skills, commitment and potential. To keep up with evolving needs, RYDT offers regular training sessions that help enhance and align capabilities with ongoing sectoral trends.
Our capacity-building efforts are practical and participatory, aiming to improve organisational performance and prepare teams to adapt and progress with confidence.
These programmes are tailored for a wide range of groups – from NGOs and community-based organisations to students, young professionals, and volunteers, all of whom play an important role in creating meaningful change.
