Mphasis Ltd has defined two areas of focus for its CSR activities with specific Projects within each.
1) Creating opportunities for the disadvantaged with emphasis on persons with disabilities
2) Technology driven community development
Aligned with definition given by the Indian government the disadvantaged are defined as individuals with family income of less than INR 100,000 per annum
Disabilities are defined as physical or learning disabilities specifically in the target demographic of youth (18 to 30 years) and women (30 years and above)
Towards creating opportunities for the disadvantaged, Mphasis will specifically focus on the following:
Inclusive vocational training and skill development relevant to ITeS
Job training of the target segment for employment in ITeS
Wealth and income generation for the disadvantaged through training and incubating social enterprises
Equal opportunity in education for disadvantaged children including children with disabilities through grant making of programs that validate proof of concept
Mphasis will also support ventures that will:
Provide products, services or support to people with disabilities or generate mass employment for people with disabilities
Undertake research and publicly promote effective policies or innovative models to further the cause of the target demographic segments
Drive sensitivity and awareness about disability among key stakeholders such as social organizations, industry groups, government entities and general population
Improve accessibility of services for people with disabilities (universal design in buildings, public transport, government services, internet, banking etc.)
The trainings related to ITeS, while drawing from the best-in-class curriculums used internally by Mphasis, will focus strictly on the target segments. This will be beyond the regular scope of business of the Company.
Mphasis will actively work in these areas with a network of implementation partners to drive impact. It will seek to drive a collaborative effort with these partners including co-conceptualization of programs, program planning and definition of outcomes. The primary focus in these areas will be to create and conceptualize breakthrough programs which could then become model solutions or interventions.
Towards the technology driven community development, Mphasis will specifically focus on the following:
Promoting education via technology led large scale learning platforms (Digital Education) for the under-served
Digital Education for supplementing the Financial inclusion aimed at financial literacy and technology based solutions for the disadvantaged in economic mainstream
