Abstract

This paper brings out how the Shipping Corporation of India (SCI), one of the top performing Indian public sector companies, organizes Corporate Social Responsibility activities, in particular selecting the panel of civil society organizations, funding, and monitoring of their activities. Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), has been a partner in this process, involved in different phases of CSR such as vision setting, network building, monitoring of projects and impact assessment. Here, we discuss interesting interventions by Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs), supported by SCI's CSR in M-East Ward of Mumbai Municipal Corporation. This ward of Mumbai Corporation is the poorest, showing the least human development index (HDI) and the highest infant mortality rate according to Mumbai Human Development Report (2009). Interestingly, these interventions aim to generate a critical push, which may improve human development profile of this region. More importantly, this initiative is in the process of building a network of organizations which would substantially contribute to the sustenance of interventions .
