The real success of Indian democracy is being attributed to its social responsiveness towards all of its citizens. Nevertheless, in the endeavour of sustaining a true and vibrant democracy, the country strives very hard to extent the facilities and benefits to all strata of the society due to its constrained resources. Therefore, the Government of India needs a helping hand from corporate sector to ensure better standard of living of its people. In this regard, the corporate India is expected to play a constructive role by undertaking activities which may ultimately lead to social rejuvenation, development and empowerment of unprivileged people. If this happens, India is very proud to be one of the countries in the world to attain real inclusive growth. Hence, it is felt that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities of companies are really a key to unlock both economic and social disparities, which in turn, benefits the person in the last mile. Moreover, the Companies Act, 2013 has directed corporate India to work towards a growth based socio-economic-environment development model. The present book is an attempt to provide the emerging trends and best practices in CSR implementation, models of partnership, managerial and organizational challenges and issues in monitoring and evaluation of projects related to CSR in the public and private sector. I thank all paper contributors for their continued support, encouragement, inspiration to complete this task. Without their help it will be difficult task for me to complete this volume. Dr. M. Vasan

Infosys has been an early proponent of responsible business practices. the company has therefore incorporated its esg goals into the entirety of its operations. in the financial year 2023-24, the company spent a total of rs. 577 cr. on csr across the world of which rs. 455.67 cr. was spent on various csr projects in india., 1. csr philosophy of infosys, infosys fulfils its social and environmental responsibilities by focusing on meeting the needs and expectations of the communities around which it operates. the company carries out its csr in a way that goes beyond philanthropy by encouraging holistic community development and community welfare through institution building and streamlining sustainable development., 2. csr policy, infosys csr policy intends to:, – strive for economic development that positively impacts the society at large with a minimal resource footprint., – embrace responsibility for the company’s actions and encourage a positive impact through its activities on hunger, poverty, malnutrition, environment, communities, stakeholders and society., 2.1. csr committee, according to the guidelines of the ministry of corporate affairs, the company has constituted a board-level csr committee to monitor the implementation of the corporate social responsibility policy of the company from time to time. the infosys corporate social responsibility committee comprises of:, 1. govind iyer (chairperson), 2. chitra nayak, 3. michael gibbs, the csr committee performs the following functions:, – identify the areas of csr activities,, – recommend the amount of expenditure for the csr activities,, – implement and monitor the csr policy from time to time,, – formulate an annual csr action plan and recommend it to the board,, – monitor company’s csr activities from time to time,, – coordinate with infosys foundation or other implementing agencies for execution of csr initiatives,, – review the impact assessment reports issued by independent agencies,, – review csr reporting/disclosures as required, and, – review the issuing of certificate required to utilise csr funds earmarked for specific projects., 3. healthcare, the infosys foundation has consistently placed healthcare as a top priority. with the aim of providing affordable, equitable, and high-quality healthcare to individuals regardless of their urban or rural residence, the foundation has actively strived to enhance infrastructure, deliver cutting-edge medical equipment, promote awareness, strengthen public health initiatives, and facilitate timely research across various medical domains., 3.1 aiims partnership, in 2015-16, the collaboration between infosys foundation and aiims began with the establishment of a chair professorship in oncology aimed at supporting faculty scientists and students in pursuing research in this field. subsequently, the foundation expanded its chair professorships to include obstetrics and gynaecology. in 2019-20, the foundation took the initiative to construct an 800-bed dharamshala at the aiims jhajjar campus, specifically within the premises of the national cancer institute..

In 2021, AIIMS introduced a new MCH Block on the hospital premises in New Delhi. This block encompasses 455 beds dedicated to the inpatient care of obstetrics, gynaecology, and pediatric patients. It includes 72 Intensive Care Unit beds, 17 Operation Theatre beds, and two beds exclusively for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). AIIMS approached the Foundation for support in swiftly operationalizing the block by providing essential, high-end medical equipment across departments such as obstetrics, gynaecology, paediatrics, pediatric surgery, anesthesiology, and radiology. The Foundation’s grant also facilitated the establishment of a specialized state-of-the-art genetic lab and computerized enterprise imaging data management system within the block.

Through the foundation’s grant, a wide range of equipment, including ultrasound machines, incubators, ventilators, dialysis machines, monitors, ot tables, and laboratory equipment, was procured. the mch block is expected to be fully operational by the end of june 2023, with most services already functioning. the outpatient services are fully operational, while inpatient and ot services are partially available., in addition to the requirements for the mch block, aiims also approached the foundation for support in implementing an integrated enterprise ris (radiology information system), vna (vendor neutral archive), and pacs (picture archiving and communications system). previously, the radiology imaging databases in the various hospitals and centres of aiims new delhi were separate and independent systems. however, with the implementation of ris vna pacs, the entire radiology imaging system will be unified. this integration will replace departmental data silos with central healthcare enterprise databases, enabling the capture of data from any source and in any format. the simplified storage and access of imaging data will have a significant positive impact on patient care, as well as research and teaching efforts., each year, a substantial number of individuals seek care at the mch block, with approximately 570,000 outpatients and around 27,000 inpatients expected to benefit annually from the foundation’s grant. the full impact of the imaging data management system will become more evident once it is fully implemented later this year., the infosys foundation takes pride in contributing to the establishment of public healthcare facilities at aiims, facilitating the delivery of critical and specialized care to patients. the lasting impact of this project will benefit generations to come as they witness and benefit from these advancements in healthcare., 3.2 type 2 diabetes reversal, type 2 diabetes (t2d) is a prevalent form of diabetes worldwide, necessitating medication and insulin therapy to manage blood sugar levels. however, what if we could halt the progression of diabetes without relying on medication or bariatric surgery research suggests that t2d patients can restore healthy blood sugar levels through lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, and healthy weight loss., as part of its commitment to addressing the escalating burden of non-communicable diseases (ncd) in india, infosys foundation aims to support t2d patients in enhancing their quality of life and mitigating the complications associated with the condition. the foundation has partnered with the association for diabetes and obesity reversal (adore) to empower t2d patients to adopt healthy lifestyles and make dietary modifications that enable them to achieve and sustain normal blood sugar levels without medication., to realize this goal, infosys foundation has facilitated the establishment of two diabetes reversal counseling centers in pune and nagpur in november 2022 and december 2022, respectively. in august 2022, the infosys foundation diabetes care program was launched in collaboration with adore. the project is scheduled to be completed

diabetes and 350 individuals with pre-diabetes. as of march 4, 2023, a total of 568 registered type 2 diabetes (t2d) patients have enrolled in the lifestyle modification program., 3.3 upgradation of infrastructure, in fiscal year 2023, the infosys foundation extended its support to the sri jayadeva institute of cardiovascular sciences in bengaluru. the foundation’s assistance involved the provision of diagnostic and medical care equipment, enhancing the hospital’s capacity to meet the growing demand for care, including covid and long covid-related treatments. specifically, the foundation supplied the hospital with a cardiac ct (computed tomography) unit and a flat-panel cardiac cath lab., in 2021, the foundation also undertook the construction of a 350-bed hospital block dedicated to the institute. with the addition of this block, the jayadeva hospital’s total capacity for cardiac care expanded to 2,000 beds. in the year 2022 alone, the hospital successfully treated 68,902 inpatients. the medical team performed a total of 4,586 open heart surgeries, 28,555 coronary angiograms, and 54,371 cath lab procedures. these statistics highlight the crucial role played by the ct unit and cath lab, which are integral to the operations of the jayadeva hospital. as patient numbers continue to rise, the acquisition of new equipment has become a necessity for the hospital., the cardiac ct unit plays a crucial role in the early detection of heart diseases and congenital conditions, particularly in children. on the other hand, the flat-panel cardiac cath lab facilitates essential procedures such as coronary angiograms, angioplasty, stenting, device closure, and pacemaker implantation. the implementation of these new units is expected to benefit a minimum of 9,600

infosys foundation and citta education foundation india aims to provide quality education to students hailing from villages and hamlets in sam, salkha, and kanoi regions of rajasthan. specifically, this program targets the students of rajkumari ratnavati girls school in jaisalmer, rajasthan. the overarching goal is to educate and empower these girls, enabling them to become well-informed,

foundation has intensified its efforts towards environmental initiatives, aiming to restore equilibrium that has been disrupted by pollution, mismanagement and depletion of natural resources, exacerbated climate change, and human-induced damage., 5.1 restoring an architectural and green heritage, infosys foundation recognizes its responsibility towards future generations and believes in the restoration of heritage sites and water bodies. in the past, the foundation has partnered with various organizations to restore significant heritage sites. this time, in collaboration with the society for advancement of human endeavor (sahe) based in telangana, the foundation has undertaken a monumental task., one such site in focus is the lingampet stepwell, known as naganna baavi. historically, stepwells were constructed across india by royalty to provide water to the people and serve as shelters for travelers. however, with the advent of piped water and drilled wells, many of these magnificent structures were abandoned and fell into disrepair, becoming neglected and even serving as dumping grounds., over the years, naganna baavi had suffered from neglect, leading to the growth of vegetation and trees within its premises. this deterioration weakened the structure of the five-level stepwell, each level being at least 20 feet high. the accumulation of silt and waste obstructed the aquifers, making it challenging to access the stepwell. additionally, the intrusion of 30-year-old trees into the masonry and the lack of demarcation posed further challenges., recognizing the value of the structure and its potential to enhance the lives of the local community, sahe was invited by the kamareddy collectorate to restore naganna baavi. sahe undertook the documentation of the project and appointed architects for the restoration, while infosys foundation provided vital support and funding. dedicated volunteers from infosys monitored the progress and supplied the necessary tools for this enormous undertaking., the restoration of naganna baavi holds numerous benefits. it will reactivate the aquifers and improve groundwater resources, directly benefiting approximately 20,000 locals in the area and revitalizing an entire ecosystem. with a capacity to hold over 18 lakh litres of water, the revival of the stepwell will also support the agricultural needs of farmers in the region. furthermore, it aims to raise awareness among residents about the significance of water resources and promote their sustainable utilization., 5.2 sustainable transport, namma metro, the metro rail transport system of bengaluru, has become an integral and indispensable part of the city’s daily life. with its extensive 70-kilometer network, it serves a remarkable daily ridership of 380,000 people. each day, these individuals contribute to reducing air pollution and carbon emissions, making a positive impact on the environment. it is a source of great pride for infosys foundation to be a significant partner of namma metro, actively involved in the construction of the infosys foundation electronic city station, an essential element of phase 2 of the metro rail project., the decision of infosys foundation to support this metro rail project is rooted in its steadfast commitment to promoting environmental sustainability. by providing a seamless and time-efficient commute, the metro project has liberated countless travellers who were previously trapped in perpetual traffic congestion. the infosys foundation electronic city station serves as a vital transportation hub for thousands of professionals commuting to the bustling it centre of bengaluru. while the project faced delays due to the unfortunate covid-19 pandemic after the signing of a memorandum of understanding (mou) between the foundation and bmrcl in 2018-19, work has now resumed and is nearing completion, showcasing the dedication and resilience of all involved parties., 6. art and culture, the museum of art & photography (map) in bengaluru, established by the art & photography foundation, is at the forefront of leveraging technology to bring arts and culture to the heart of society. infosys foundation, a firm believer in promoting art and preserving it for future generations, stands as a proud partner of map in this endeavor., the collaboration between infosys foundation and map began in 2020 when the foundation became one of the founding patrons, providing crucial support and becoming a valued donor. this support primarily focused on the construction of the museum building in bengaluru and the technological development of the digital museum, an encyclopedia, interactive website experiences, software visualizations, and exhibitions. on february 18, 2023, the museum opened its doors to the public., the infosys foundation gallery hosts art exhibitions showcasing the finest works of renowned and emerging artists. each exhibition spans three months and offers free access to unique and exquisite artworks. this art gallery serves as a platform to support artists and ensure that art enthusiasts can revel in the beauty of exceptional creations., taking art beyond the confines of museums and galleries, the ongoing partnership project, initiated in september 2022 and scheduled for completion in august 2025, focuses on innovative museum experiences. with the foundation’s support, map is creating wall-based three-dimensional (3d) holographic projectors, a digital platform to catalog the map collection, and state-of-the-art it infrastructure for the new museum. additionally, a user-friendly and captivating website is being developed, providing visitors with a virtual museum experience complete with comprehensive details of the collection, digital exhibitions, ongoing and upcoming events, blogs, articles, video series, and educational initiatives., another significant aspect of the project is the creation of the map academy encyclopedia of art (maea), an extensive and inclusive online resource featuring historical research on art from south asia. this encyclopedia is freely accessible to all, promoting knowledge and understanding of the region’s artistic heritage., furthermore, the project emphasizes comprehensive content creation, particularly for digital platforms. from exploring artificial intelligence and holographic technology to utilizing 3d representations, photogrammetry, virtual reality, and touch screens, the team continually seeks ways to enhance public engagement and enrich art experiences., infosys foundation through its csr projects has worked towards helping society and achieving sustainable development. it leverages its high tech background and implements projects which are tracked on a real-time basis and hence create lasting impact in the community., related articles more from author.
