The MoU is aimed at implementing a flagship CSR project titled “Empowering Self-Help Groups (SHGs) for Sustainable Livelihoods by Revitalizing Handicrafts: A Community-Centered Approach.” The project, with an estimated cost of ₹85 lakh, will be implemented at the Belgadia Rehabilitation Township over a period of two years.

Empowering 100 Women Through Skill and Market Linkages

The initiative seeks to empower at least 100 women from local Self-Help Groups (SHGs) by providing them with sustainable livelihood opportunities through manufacturing and marketing bamboo and jute-based handicraft products.

The project will focus on:

• Skill development and capacity building
• Income generation and entrepreneurship
• Economic self-reliance and social empowerment
• Long-term sustainability through assured market access

A key feature of the project is the buy-back assurance, under which ACIC IIT (ISM) Foundation will procure a minimum of 40 percent of the products manufactured, ensuring stable income and market security for the participating women.

Dedicated Facility at Belgadia Township

The project will operate from a newly constructed building at Belgadia, being developed by the Jharia Rehabilitation and Development Authority (JRDA). Once operational, the facility will serve as a dedicated hub for production, training, and coordination.

The ultimate objective is to enable participating women to become economically independent, skilled artisans capable of sustaining livelihoods beyond the project duration.

MoU Signing Ceremony

The MoU signing ceremony was attended by Surendra Bhushan, Head of Department (CSR), BCCL, along with members of the BCCL CSR team. The ACIC IIT (ISM) Foundation was represented by Dr. Akanksha and her team.
