The ability to communicate and disseminate information and knowledge is an art of Humanity and it’s inalienable rights as well.
Our mission to empowering and educating the consumers; to make them skilled and informed so that they can understand their rights and responsibilities.
Taking the motto ahead to empower the society through awareness in the field of Consumer Rights, Human Rights, Anti-Corruption, and others our organization Consumer Rights Organization (CRO) has taken initiative in this noble journey.
Solutions to large global challenges often start with small and local actions. Every day we come across problems in our community, we also find an opportunity to stand up and taking action against it or resolve it. An artist may see youth in his neighborhood with nothing to do after schooling and start an informal art program. An educator may notice that youth from poor families don’t attend school regularly and set up a Saturday tutoring program. A nurse may teach that women in her community are uninformed about basic health service and organize informational workshops etc. But no matter what kind of challenge or opportunity we face we can accomplish more when we have more resources and people supporting our goal than when we act alone. This is why we all get together and form this Organization.
CONSUMER RIGHTS ORAGNIZATION (CRO) is one of the leading organization working primarily for the Consumer Rights, Human Rights, Anti-Corruption, Women & Child rights and inclusive of all social rights and act, advice to prevent from violation, help in protecting the acts associated with the social rights of the public, providing health and educational workshops in school and community centers. Secondarily, the Trust aims to empower the common people through improving their health, education, technology, skill development, enabling them in the field of environment and agriculture, doing social welfare and community services, helping and generating livelihood, and creating an encouraging environment in the field of art, culture, and sports.
CRO Bharat functioning in the consumer’s interest, we interact with statuary and recommendatory committees & forums constituted by the government and raise the problems of aggrieved consumers and uphold the rights of the civil society. We raise youth awareness and their active participation in issues of controlling corruption and improving transparency at the local government level through a public awareness campaign and a series of meetings with youth in schools and colleges. To raise awareness in civil society, various competitions were conducted and prizes distributed to the winners.
