About Us
Moser Baer Trust, a Community Development wing of Moser
Baer India Limited, (MBIL) is a registered entity under the Indian Trust Act, 1883,
and forms a part of the Corporate Social Responsibility
(CSR) department of MBIL. The CSR initiatives of Moser
Baer have aimed at integrating the economic,
environmental and social imperatives along with its
stakeholder expectations for ensuring sustainability
of development interventions.
In its initial years, MBT provided heath service to the
nearby villages. With the passage of time, there came a
shift in the modus operandi of MBT from service delivery
to sustainability and empowerment. MBT has observed an
organic growth in its operations and has been involved
in designing and implementing need-based programs. Since
then, MBT has been focusing its energies and resources
on core developmental issues like Education, Youth
development, Health, and Livelihood for the
targeted population. The areas of intervention for MBT
have been villages adjoining the MBIL plants with a
vision to serve the neighbouring communities first and
facilitate their empowerment.
The MBT has its direct interventions in villages Kakrala,
Aagar, Tilapta, Surajpur and Nagla villages at
present. However, it has profoundly impacted the lives
of the marginalized of 118 villages of Noida and Greater
Noida through its employability skills development
program, in collaboration with CAP Foundation. The MBT
has also moved beyond rural boundaries by
advocating contemporary burning issues of global warming
and preservation of our cultural heritage through its
program CineArt. Under this program, 1000 children from
21 schools both from public schools to private schools
and the NGO-based were encouraged to participate and
later on they developed small films on “Our World”.
While community development initiatives have benefited
all sections of society, MBT has stressed action on
development of youth since they are indispensable in
sustaining any change process.
