Answer:
1) Mahatma Gandhi:The Mahatma was a man obsessed with sustainability, being environment friendly, making the best use of local resources, growth of villages, power of cooperatives, promoting local industry and community-driven initiatives.He always spoke of growing local cottage industry, like Khadi, being self-reliant and having the community own enterprises. The best example of his insistence of leveraging local resources and not being depending on imports is his ‘Salt March’ to Dandi, where he called for local production of salt, after there was salt tax levied by the British. Gandhi’s love for Panchayat Raj, empowerment of women and ban of imports can be looked at as seeds of social transformation, sustainability and self-sustaining local communities.
2) Dr Verghese Kurien, father of the India’s milk revolution: Kurien’s contribution to the social entrepreneurship movement in India is monumental.Thanks to Kurien’s foresight, planning and execution, India through the ‘white revolution’, went from a milk importing country to the world’s largest producer. In a career spanning close to 60 years, Kurien founded around 30 institutions of excellence like Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), Institute of Rural Management, Anand (IRMA) and The National Dairy Development Board’s (NDDB).
3)Dr. G. Venkataswamy, founder of Aravind Eye Hospital:Dr. Venakataswamy (also known as Dr V) founded Aravind Eye Hospital in 1976 as a way to provide affordable eye-care to the millions who had no access to quality healthcare. From its humble origins of a 11-bed clinic manned by 4 medical officers, it has grown into one of the world’s largest facilities for quality eye-care. The story goes that Dr. Venkataswamy very nearly did not become a doctor because he developed rheumatoid arthritis when he had enrolled in the Indian Army Medical Corps, which was so severe that he was unable to hold a pen. He returned to medical school, earned his degree and ended up doing 100 surgeries a day at his peak.
