Our scientists develop new methods and tools to enable timely, relevant, and useful information about the Earth and its processes.

Based in one of India’s least ‘developed’ states, we address environment and people-centred issues - from forest, water and land rights, livelihoods and mining issues, to climate change and disaster risk reduction.
