Collaborative Programmes
Dr. K M Aboobacker, our founder, had always envisioned extending the mission CIGI undertook in Kerala, to different parts of the country. We collaborate with several like-minded organisations around the nation to spread our mission. Kerala is the state with the highest literacy rate in India and thus the responsibility falls on us as a state to spread light to other parts of the country especially the far away rural heartlands. Therefore, it is indeed necessary to opt for a much inclusive method taking into consideration those regions that are still living in darkness.
Centre for Collaborative Social Work (CCSW) is our arm to extend support to disadvantaged communities in othe r parts of the country. Mission Kishanganj in association with Prayaan Foundation was the first step that we took in this direction by adopting a Panchayath named Majgama in Kishanganj of Bihar, which is one of the most backward districts in the country. Lakshadweep Education Programme is another initiative that we carry under CCSW to educationally empower the island people who are listed as Scheduled Tribes.
In the 25th year of our establishment, CIGI has launched ROPE (Reach Out Plan for Excellence) as an outreach mission of CIGI in the North East states. As a part of the plan, we have collaborated with the Prayaan Foundation to establish 5 centres of educational guidance in some of the neediest regions of the country namely, Berhampur (West Bengal), Rampur (Assam), Patna and Kishanganj (Bihar), with the aim of replicating the activities of CIGI in Kerala.
