Environment & Sustainable Communities

Building greener, healthier, and more resilient communities through environmental stewardship, data-driven public health, and citizen participation.

Our environmental work goes beyond tree-planting. We combine technology, community engagement, and data intelligence to address root causes, from water contamination to urban infrastructure, building a healthier future for all.

Roorkee Health Intelligence Pilot (RHIP)

Transforming Water Data into Public Health Action

RHIP is a first-of-its-kind initiative that aims to strengthen public health by connecting water quality monitoring with disease surveillance, technology, and evidence-based decision-making. Starting across 40 wards of Roorkee, RHIP will assess over 1,000 water samples to identify contamination hotspots and support targeted interventions.

Key Focus Areas

✓Water quality assessment and source identification
✓GIS-based contamination hotspot mapping
✓AI & IoT-enabled monitoring systems
✓Disease surveillance and health analytics
✓Evidence-based policy and decision support
✓Scalable model for wider regional replication

Project Vision

To create a smarter, data-driven approach to water and public health management, helping communities, institutions, and governments move from reacting to disease to preventing it at its source.
