At a ceremony held in Mumbai, NMDC was awarded the 1st Prize at The CSR Journal Excellence Awards 2024 in the category of Women Empowerment and Child Welfare for its flagship program, the Balika Shiksha Yojana. This recognition highlights NMDC’s commitment to empowering communities, particularly women and children in the Bastar region. The program, which sponsors the nursing education of girls from disadvantaged backgrounds, has been a beacon of hope since its inception, with over 500 beneficiaries to date. Through this initiative, NMDC is not only changing lives but also addressing critical healthcare shortages in rural India.
In another proud moment, at the ASSOCHAM Awards 2024 held in Kolkata, NMDC’s focus on sustainability and mining innovation was recognized with two prestigious awards: the Mining Excellence Award for its commitment to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles & Sustainability of the Year, and the Award for Excellence in Mining Innovation and Mineral Development of the Year.
These recognitions at the ASSOCHAM Awards highlight NMDC’s commitment to responsible mining and sustainable growth. By continuously advancing responsible mining practices, NMDC is setting the benchmark for the Iron & Steel industry.
