SusPoT – Center for Sustainability
SusPoT – Center for Sustainability is a Non-Profit Think-&-Do Tank incorporated with a mission to empower decision makers in developing inclusive sustainability strategies and implementing action plans towards achieving climate-neutral transition of the Indian economy. SusPoT’s vision is to act as a ‘catalyst’ in shaping the sustainable transition of the Indian economy, both at macro-&-micro levels.
SusPoT’s purpose is to fast-pace the integration of sustainability goals into decision making through policy research, system modelling, capacity building and advisory. At present, SusPoT engages with policy makers, corporates, youth and farmers to empower them by: (1) Developing actionable knowledge portals; (2) Conducting policy research on climate action, adaptation & energy transition; (3) Building capacity & skill development programs on sustainability and climate change; (4) Offering sustainability advisory; and (5) Promoting regenerative agricultural practices.
SusPoT is one of the very few Indian Think Tanks that is founded and led by youth. SusPoT was incubated by the Clean Energy Lab in 2018 – an initiative by Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation and Indian School of Business (Hyderabad) to support early stage civil society organizations with big innovative ideas that can create research and evidence based policy impact in India’s clean energy space. The activities at SusPoT contribute towards multiple United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly – Clean Water (Goal 6) and Energy (7), Sustainable Economic Growth (8) and Industrialization (9), Inclusive Communities (11), Responsible Consumption and Production (12), Climate Action (13) and Partnerships for Sustainable Development (17).
