Nightingale Group is the umbrella body, the central agency under whose aegis several Bahá’í inspired non-profit organisations are planned to exert relentless efforts to contribute effectively to the process of building an everlasting, ever-advancing civilization on this earthly homeland. All member organisations of the group aim and strive to promote individual and collective well-being in the society. While doing so, systematic application of Bahá’í principles are kept at the heart of all activities of the Group.

A member organisation of the Group is Nightingale Foundation which focuses its efforts on various kinds of training, capacity building programs in collaboration with like-minded organisations and individuals worldwide. Good governance, value education, human rights and responsibilities, prosperity of humankind will be among the core areas of work of this entity. The Foundation also endeavours to undertake all kinds of humanitarian and advocacy projects for general welfare of the society and its needy members.

Another member organisation, the research cum publishing wing of the Group is Nightingale Press which mainly focuses its efforts to conceptualise, research and develop educative materials, publish them and distribute them across the world at subsidized prices. Several publications are in the planning stage at this time and selected writers assigned the task of developing the projects. Nightingale Press also accepts printing, shipping, marketing and distribution assignments from institutions and the friends from across the globe on such terms and conditions as mutually agreed by both parties. It also accepts editing, copy-editing and proofreading assignments as well as offers publishing consultancy services. A part of the revenues of Nightingale Press is used for humanitarian purposes.

The most successful product that Nightingale Press developed so far is the beautiful Bahá’í Diary, a hard bound executive diary having both Gregorian and the Bahá’í days and dates which aims to familiarize the friends with the Bahá’í calendar. Nightingale Press has been publishing these Diaries for the last seven years and the eighth Diary for the year 2010-11 has already been released. For more information regarding the Diary and for ordering/buying it, please click here. Nightingale Press will soon announce about its next publications.
