About Us
CSEI was registered as a Trust in 2009. The impetus to initiate CSEI is embedded in the three decades of Dalit rights work of its board and senior team. We recognize the need for purposive social equity and inclusion strategies to address the historical and continuing exclusion and discrimination against socially excluded and disadvantaged communities. We are acutely aware of its complex and multiple dimensions intersecting with gender, ability, age, language, economic class, and remote geographies to name some.

Our Mission
To promote the socio-economic and cultural rights of socially excluded children and youth, with added focus on girls, to realize their rights to education, leadership, skills, and employment through evidence-based advocacy for inclusive policies/provisions, partnering with community-led civil society organizations and other stakeholders.
Our Values
We are committed to non-discrimination, diversity, and affirmative action promoting social inclusion.
•
We believe in collaboration, partnership, and networking to build a vibrant civil society.
•
We practice democratic and collective leadership, transparency, and accountability in all our interventions.
Theory of Change
We believe that empowered young people hold the potential to transform socially excluded and marginalized communities as a critical link to wider society and the bridge between the adults/elders who have lived in social exclusion and the children who are building its future. Gender equity measures to support girls' full engagement and leadership are central to this process. We continuously deepen our engagement with further marginalized communities and intersectional issues of sexual minorities and persons with disability to enrich inclusion.
