The Journey

The journey from the Gurgaon Action Plan to Making Model Gurugram represents a progression from addressing immediate civic issues to building a comprehensive framework for a sustainable city. Initially, the Action Plan targeted urgent needs such as grievance redressal, waste and C&D management, inadequate street lighting, infrastructure challenges, road safety, transportation, and water resource planning.
Making Model Gurugram has since evolved into a collaborative initiative, involving government, RWAs, and community leaders to implement sustainable and inclusive solutions. This approach emphasizes proactive governance, collaborative policymaking, green initiatives, decentralized waste management, and infrastructure development to shape Gurgaon into a dynamic, future-ready city.
