Profile of Indian Voluntary Organisations 2013 RIS FIDC Research and Information System Forum for Indian Development for Developing Countries Cooperation RIS has taken an initiative to bring academics, civil society organisations (CSOs) and the Government on one platform through the Forum for Indian Development Cooperation (FIDC), launched in January 2013 to facilitate exchange of information among all major official and non-official stakeholders. This would help evolve an enriched debate on India’s development cooperation programme. It is with this objective in mind that FIDC member and RIS has prepared this Directory of CSOs that enlists the major areas of work of CSOs and some of the major projects carried out by them, among other details for easy reference by DPA. Mr. P. Raghavan, Special Secretary (DPA) and Mr. Kumar Tuhin, JS (DPA-II) provided keen support to compile together the list of the CSOs. Dr. Biswajit Dhar, Dr. Anuradha Chenoy and Mr. Rajesh Tandon guided the evolution process. Thanks are due to Mr. Harsh Jaitli and Mr. Kaustuv Bandhopadhyay for their voluntary support.
