The evolution of CDP as coordinating secretariat for a network of NGOs had played a role for the organization to continue capacity building of the grassroots level NGOs/CBOs and maintain network approach for program implementation and policy advocacy. Since inception, CDP has been maintaining a trustworthy horizontal and vertical relationship with community as well as with the grassroots level NGOs/CBOs for advocacy dialogue, sharing experiences and developing common vision.

CDP has been maintaining Sustainable Agriculture Forum for promoting eco-agriculture and conserving indigenous varieties of rice and other crops produced in the Coastal Region.
