Institute for Sustainable Communities

ISC is an international, non-profit organization with a mission to support communities by creating, implementing, and scaling equitable climate change mitigation and resilience solutions for those most profoundly impacted by the global climate crisis by forming collaborative, people-focused partnerships.

With ISC’s help, India’s local leaders are:

  1. Improving energy efficiency of factories to reduce emissions.
  2. Reducing industrial pollution.
  3. Making factories healthier and safer for workers.
  4. Strengthening factories’ understanding of and approach to water scarcity for improved supply chain and community resilience. ISC demonstrates clean technologies for various industries through its Innovative Clean Energy Technology (ICET) Platform and assists SMEs with adoption of sustainable practices.
