Our vision is that ODRAZ becomes, not only an established and recognized institution, but also financially stable, with well educated and adequately trained and paid professionals, dedicated to delivering high quality results and to responding to the challenges and responsibilities of the future as well as those of today. Our mission is o motivate and strengthen initiatives in local communities through partnership in order to develop practical and appropriate ways for improving the local economy and environment.Main Projects / Activities
