Our campaigns typically address environmental, social and economic justice issues, and often involve lobbying for compliance with environmental legislation by corporations, government authorities and individuals.  

Our involvement in a campaign begins either when another individual or group approaches ESG for comments or assistance, or when we ourselves find issue with a particular development project/investment.  

There is a plethora of environmental legislation in India, but it is rarely enforced.  Furthermore, it appears that the public are not aware of their Rights with respect to environmental laws.  For instance, public hearings in which all affected parties are permitted to participate are mandatory for certain types of projects, however this is not a commonly known fact.

With each campaign, we seek to engage the public, government bodies and corporations and create awareness about the provisions of and enforcement of environmental legislation in India.  A core factor in campaign work are the needs and wishes of project affected communities, and we seek to ensure that these are addressed.
