CoSRO Projects
Our projects are as diverse as the research we conduct, and they remain focused on CoSRO's central mission of creating, protecting and promoting opportunities that improve quality of life for everyone. We encourage you to read about our projects, discuss them and help support them. We also welcome your vigilance in identifying meaningful projects. Please check out our Project Pointer program and submit any issues you feel CoSRO can help fix!
Talent Search
Volunteers from the E&E RAC work in slums to search for talented children and arrange to have them admitted into proper schools.

Solid Waste Study
Burgeoning growth of urban areas is posing tremendous challenges in solid waste management. Scattering of waste at ad-hoc disposal sites across cities are more than just an eye-sore--they are a dangerous threat to public health.
Project "Pointer"
YOU CAN FIX IT! WE CAN HELP!
Are you frustrated with negligence and abuse of public resources? Do you want to do something about it? If you are in the NCR region, we invite you to report to us any irregularities that may come to your notice. For example:
• Potholes on roads
• Broken sewerage
• Inadequate water supply
• Erratic power breakdowns
Documentary: Bharat Nirman
CoSRO has produced a documentary on the efficacy of Government of India's Bharat Nirman Project. At a cost of Rs. 80 Billion, Bharat Nirman is a business plan for building infrastructure in areas of irrigation, roads, housing, water supply, electrification and telecommunication connectivity by 2009. In order to make this programme successful it is essential that the civil society and non-government organisations offer their respective expertise to the government.
We, through our close contacts at the grassroots level, produced the documentary film of 25 minutes duration that drew the attention of people at various levels and organisations concerned with India’s development. It was screened for experts from the World Bank and UNDP. The video is now with the World Bank for their further use.
