SKOCH Water Award
Last date to apply: 15th February 2021,
Early bird date: 22nd February 2021
The world has moved from millennium development goals to sustainable development goals in order to ensure prosperity for all. Whether it is corporate social responsibility, education, clean water, clean energy, health, sustainable cities or climate change, all the corporate citizens have noteworthy successes that need to be shared for wider learning, replication and scale. Most of the water planning and development in the country is done as per administrative boundaries rather than by using river basins as the hydrological unit.
We have taken the lead in recognising initiatives that have helped overcome such challenges, by instituting ‘SKOCH Water Award’ that is aimed at recognising your organisation’s achievements and contributions in the area of Water.
Some of the past awardees include:
- Water Resources Department, Government of Gujarat
- Water Resources Department, Government of Andhra Pradesh
- Department of Horticulture, Department of Horticulture and Plantation Crops, Government of Tamil Nadu
