Community of Rural Enterprise
Making Villages self-sufficient & enabling life with dignity & happiness.
SSRDP believes in innovation and enterprise development as a strategic development intervention that could accelerate the livelihoods of people at the bottom of the pyramid.
Community of Rural Enterprise (CORE) was started to promote rural entrepreneurs and community leaders and to develop village-level infrastructure to address major issues in rural India. It is a vehicle to improve the quality of life of individuals, families and communities, sustain a healthy economy and villages, mitigate the migration of rural India to cities, and provide adequate opportunities and income-generating activities to young people in their villages. Currently, CORE provides training to rural youth on technologies like Areccanut Plate making, smokeless Chulahas, Agarbatti Rolling, Bio Gas Making, Screen Printing, Charcoal Briquetting & Renewable Energy.

Our Projects
Arecanut Plates Making
Aiming to reduce the Impact on our environment by creating and promoting Areca Leaf Products which are being produced with sustainable recourses and with aid of Rural Community. This Eco friendly Process (no chemicals or additives used) and make sure it is acceptable to Earth when disposed (biodegradable & compostable) and also helps create employment.
Smokeless Chulahas
SSRDP trains women entrepreneurs in Installing Improvised Cook Stoves and train them in educating the local rural women about Indoor Air Pollution and simple solutions to tackle them by installing smokeless chulha’s. We help design in setu units using up to 50% less firewood than traditional chulha’s which are more durable and creates upto 80% less smoke for a better health.
Bio Gas Making
Aiming to reduce the impact on our environment by creating and promoting Areca Leaf Products which are being produced with sustainable recourses and with the aid of Rural Communities. This Eco-friendly Process (no chemicals or additives used) and make sure it is acceptable to Earth when disposed of (biodegradable & compostable) and also helps create employment.
Charcoal Briquetting
Charcoal Briquette is a form of Biomass where a domestic energy source is naturally abundant (agricultural waste) and presents a promising renewable energy opportunity that could provide an alternative to the use of fossil resources which is eco-friendly. Our Initiative trains the rural locals to domestically process Charcoal Briquettes production and help in creating a rural enterprise and employment.
