Our Mission – Moving Towards Sustainability

The concept of Sustainability as a way of life is of paramount importance today. With issues of environmental degradation, depleting resources, and irreversible climate change plaguing the earth, urgent steps must be taken towards the resilient and sensitive development of the built environment. Sustainability Initiatives aims at developing a knowledge resource pool that will guide the policymakers and actors of today to make informed decisions that would make the world a better place for the future generation.

Our Initiatives

Advocacy and Outreach

Advocacy is a very crucial function of Sustainability Initiatives, where we take efforts to address current and future policies of the government.

Capacity Building

Capacity Building through Training and Awareness is the cornerstone for achieving Sustainable development.

Research and Publication

There is a massive gap between availability of quality research that can feed into policy making in India.

Community Contributions

While we aim for city-level development, we are also active on the community & neighborhood level.

At DY Patil school of Architecture, Lohegaon we strive to give the best educational experience to the students. Site visits at premium institutes help Environmental architecture and Bachelors' students gain professional knowledge and overall rounded development. I am glad that Sustainability Initiatives through their advocacy program have helped us to get access to institutes like Suzlone, Yamuna Kirloskar Green Buildings, PMC STP plants etc. and to organise site visits. Kudos to Mr. Amol Umbarje and team Sustainability Initiatives for their relentless social work. Such initiative has created opportunities for dialogue between industry and academic institutions.

Environment and Sustainability is a very important aspect for upcoming development discourse.
