WGF is very happy to share that we have recently signed a formal Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) and WHEELS Global Foundation (WGF) to implement a pilot Project for restoration and revival of water bodies and holistic community development, leveraging our HP Model of collaborative governance through the Execution Convergence Portal.
An Agreement of Association (AOA) between WGF and its champion consortium partners was also signed and annexed with the MoU. Our partners are ATE Chandra Foundation and Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham. Spoken Tutorial of IIT Bombay will support in IT training and community communication etc.
It’s heartening to mention the brief background of the Project. Dr Arun Veer Singh, CEO, YEIDA, invited WGF team for a presentation on 30th Nov. 2022. We met CEO, YEIDA together with several of WGF partners and discussed the need of restoration and rejuvenation of water ponds and holistic community development in the villages in YEIDA’s administrative jurisdiction. Based on multiple discussions between all of us, an Action Plan was drawn up.
The objective of the project is to see significant outcomes in the areas of:
1. Natural resources productivity an
2. Economic and livelihoods
3. Social & health
4. Community institutions and sustainability
WGF had developed an Execution Convergence Portal for Collaborative Governance for Rural Resurgence through Water Security for rejuvenation of springs in HP. This Execution Convergence Portal will be implemented for this project also for seamless execution. The outcomes will be mapped in the Portal with tasks and milestones, as detailed in the Articles of Association.
The project is scheduled to commence from 15th January, 2023. The inception meeting was held with the CEO, YEIDA on 6th January.
