Get Involved
The people of Wardha are working to improve their lives. There are many ways you can help.
Visit Wardha
Whether you come for a week or for a semester, to conduct research, to study, or to teach, a visit to Wardha will allow you to contribute to the Bajaj Foundation's innovations and to explore best-practices in rural development.
Carnegie Mellon teams have studied restored rivers, biogas plants, and organic farms and have helped lead trainings in computers, business, leadership, and English. We have worked with village volunteers, members of women's self-help groups, and indigenous farmers. Your itinerary will depend on your interests and the needs of the villages you visit.
The Bajaj Lab can help you design your visit depending on your time, interests, and whether you want to study, conduct research, or teach. We do not offer funding to cover the costs of your travel, but can help connect you with possible sources of funding.
Contribute from Pittsburgh
In hundreds of villages and thousands of projects, the Bajaj Foundation is providing crucial support to the people of Wardha. You do not need to visit Wardha to help.
Host a Women's Collaborative
The Bajaj Lab is working to bring the leaders of a women's self-help group to Pittsburgh. There are many ways you can help, whether by contributing financially or by offering to host one of our visitors.
Support a Student
In Wardha, college tuition costs only a few hundred dollars. And yet many young people do not have the money to pursue their dreams.
Carnegie Mellon students have raised funds to help disadvantaged young people in Wardha attend college. If you would like to contribute or learn more, please contact Nico Slate.
