IRMAn led initiatives

Set up on the 24th of October, 1994 Charkha a voluntary, non-government organisation was born with the realisation that developmental issues pertaining to rural India were not receiving adequate coverage in mainline media.

Through the use of various tools of communication, Charkha serves as a dynamic link between grassroots activists, rural India, NGOs, and the mainstream media. It is a Charkha priority that constructive and positive aspects of all developmental work are duly covered by both national and regional media. Charkha focuses attention on the underprivileged and marginalised whose cause is often overlooked and whose voice remains unheard.

About CFM

Commercial supply chain dynamics do not by themselves address the challenges of third world employment, and quality of life issues. However, it is apparent that global trade, essentially in the worldwide industries can either exploit for unilateral gain, or collaborate to "share gain" for overall development of work force. CFM therefore creates "gainshare" solutions within commercial interactions to directly impact producer communities and contribute towards UN Millennium Development Goals 2015.

Such applications reach directly to the employer and they take the short-listing and selection process by themselves.
