Green Institute for Research and Development (GIRD) is a non-profit organization dedicated to transformative initiatives across India, with a focus on environmental conservation, sustainable development, and human resource development. Since its inception in 1996, GIRD has worked passionately at the intersection of ecology and equity—striving for a healthier planet while empowering communities through impactful programs in public health, education, skill-building, and social welfare.

As a forward-looking NGO, GIRD tackles the complex challenges of modern India—ranging from pollution control, promotion of renewable energy, and climate change mitigation, to empowering marginalized communities through vocational training, educational support, assistance for orphans and persons with disabilities, and food distribution for the needy. GIRD is also actively involved in emergency relief and long-term rehabilitation for victims of natural disasters. Our approach is deeply rooted in the principles of social development and nation-building, ensuring that no one is left behind as India moves toward a more sustainable and inclusive future.

Our work spans both rural areas and urban centers like Delhi. Whether it’s setting up smart classrooms and mobile crèches, participating in the “Clean Up the World” campaign in the UAE, or distributing food kits during crises like the COVID-19 pandemic, GIRD remains at the forefront of grassroots action with global relevance.

Through our Food Kit Distribution Program, we support daily wage workers, slum dwellers, and marginalized groups in Delhi and Haryana.

With the support of different Governmental organizations, universities and research institutions like the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Central Pollution Control Board, Delhi Pollution Control Committee, Delhi Technological University and Jamia Millia Islamia, GIRD has achieved remarkable milestones. Our latest program, "Empowering Girl Students and Women of Poor Socio-Economic Background in Ballimaran Area of Old Delhi," is being supported by Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL) under its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative. Through this program, we are empowering girl students by providing in their schools computer systems, smart boards, and water coolers with RO systems to ensure safe drinking water, and supporting women from poor families by providing them sewing machines to enable self-employment.

As part of the celebration on the completion of the Silver Jubilee, GIRD will host a commemorative function on April 21, 2025, at the Community Centre in Ballimaran, Old Delhi. The event will witness the distribution of sewing machines to 100 women, empowering them with self-employment opportunities under the aforementioned CSR initiative. Additionally, we will showcase our different impactful projects that have benefited a cross-section of people across different parts of the country.

This celebration is not just a milestone but a testament to the unwavering support from our partners and the resilience of the communities we serve. We are committed to fostering sustainable development and empowering future generations with opportunities for a better tomorrow.

We invite you all to attend the function and witness GIRD's legacy of creating positive change. Join us in celebrating this remarkable milestone and amplifying our vision for a sustainable, equitable, and healthy future.
