INREM Foundation

INREM Foundation is a research institution probing societal issues concerning water, public health, agriculture and the environment. The institution develops innovative inter-disciplinary solutions and brings them into the wider domain of practice by participating with communities and government. INREM was constituted in 1994 with support from Winr... ock International, Ford Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation. It originally started with a need felt by natural resource economists to impact teaching, training and research in their field in India. Under the guidance of Dr. Katar Singh, formerly RBI Chair Professor, Institute of Rural Management, Anand, the organization has now developed into a recognized institution in the field of natural resource management with special focus on water resources related research, field implementation, training and policy formulation. The INREM Board supervises the functioning of the organization. INREM is also guided by an Institutional Ethics Committee that supervises the ethical practice of research performed by the organization. The INREM directors, Dr. Sunderrajan Krishnan and Dr. Rajnarayan Indu, strive towards approaching problems of natural resource management from a blend of academic rigour in hydrology, economics, sociology and medical sciences. Team-INREM is located in Anand, Gujarat and Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh. Together, they bring forward a combination of research skills, social work experience and innovative product development approaches.Read More
