Mission
The M.S. Chadha Center for Global India (CGI) seeks to address key interactions between India and the world that have potential to transform human and planetary wellbeing, and our imaginaries of the human experience. CGI is novel in its focus: on the linkages between India and the world, rather than solely focused within India.
