Community Environmental Resource Center
ATREE's Field Academy

   Social innovation Center was launched by ATREE CERC in Muhamma in the month of September 2018 to create a space for women to innovate and create enterprises that can directly or indirectly benefit the ecosystem. The innovation lab started off with basic facilities for sewing and the idea was to develop a platform for the women where they can refine their existing skills like tailoring. Now it empowers the women in the panchayat by capacitating them to start an enterprise and also to come up with innovative products.
