| Alternative energy |
To reduce the pressure on forests and the workload on women who often travel long distances to fetch fuelwood, CHIRAG has made consistent efforts to introduce appropriate technologies and energy-efficient systems. |
| Social forestry |
Over 6 million saplings have been planted in about 40 square kilometres of degraded forest in 45 villages.. |
| Health care |
Health care has, for over 15 years, been a priority area for CHIRAG. Through two rural health centres, the overt demand of the local populace for community and hospital services is partially met. |
