Established in 1996, CUTS
Centre for Consumer Action, Research & Training (CUTS CART) is a
research and advocacy Centre. This Programme Centre was created as a
result of diversification of CUTS in order to move ahead with its
inherited agenda: consumer protection and education, and to create a
more responsible society. In order to contribute in the CUTS’ vision
of CONSUMER SOVEREIGNTY, CUTS CART endeavors through the
mission ‘To enable consumers, particularly the poor and the
marginalized to achieve their right to basic needs, sustainable
development and good governance through strong consumer movement’
Continuous pioneering work
in the area of consumer protection found CART at the forefront of
the consumer movement in India and beyond. So far, the Centre has
trained over 1200 activists and created 300 independent groups in
Rajasthan and elsewhere. Moreover, CART is credited to have about
1000 organisations in its network. |
