Transforming India into a better place of living for all.

Our Impact 2021-22

Safe Drinking Water for Every Villager

In 2021, only 5% of villagers had access to tap water.

In 2023, we’ve connected every home with a freshwater tap. We also provided free water for a local high school and hostel for tribal children.

Combat Local Poverty

12% average increase in agricultural income for 612 farmers, a majority from Schedule Tribe and Schedule Cast communities.

521 small and marginal farmers were trained on the use of mulching to grow vegetables, leading to a 25% increase in profit margin and 10% in productivity.

Combat Child Malnutrition

In 2021, 40% children less than five were found to be stunted, defined as being too short for their age as a result of malnutrition.

In 2023, 88% of malnourished children were removed from the severely malnourished category, and 60% of children turned to normally nourished.

Women Powerment

All Women committee to ensure the effective operation and maintenance of new water supply system. Empowered to set a monthly tariff to generate funds for maintenance and repair.

What are Sustainable Development Goals?


Designed and detailed to be a global blueprint towards a better and more sustainable future for all by 2030.

The United Nations 17 interrelated SDGs or Sustainable Development Goals are the same in India, as around the world.

Broadly they look to alleviate poverty, reduce inequality, increase sustainable livelihoods, create green jobs, promote green investment, address climate change, protect natural capital, manage resources efficiently, and foster policy coherence.

Our Pilot Project

Starting in 2021, the Global Institute Of Sustainable Development and local government authorities have begun collaborating on a pilot project to achieve SDG goals in India.

Located 185 km or 115 miles North-West from the state capital Kolkata. Our two pilot projects are in the nearby villages of Simulia and Mahula, both part of the Sattore gram panchayat, within the Bolpur Sriniketan Block in Birbhum District, West Bengal.

Our goal is to develop Simulia and Mahula as model villages and to then replicate our success and learnings onto other villages within the Sattore gram panchayat, as well as those within the larger Birbhum District of West Bengal in India.
