MSWF focuses on organizing rural communities into independent, community-based organizations. The key strategies include:
- Empowerment of rural communities, especially the underprivileged and women.
- Collectivization and promotion of individual micro-enterprises.
- Building self-reliant institutions for enhancing livelihoods, social inclusion, health, education, and rural governance.
- Incorporating skills and enterprise development to meet the evolving needs of rural geographies.
- Ensuring gender and civil society development are integral to all activities.
The organization mobilizes human, financial, and technological resources to support rural communities in identifying and addressing their developmental needs and priorities.
