Partners in Change was formerly established by ActionAid International India in 1995 under the Societies Registration Act, 1860. PiC was the first NGO in the country with a mandate to exclusively focus on engaging with business to minimize its negative impact and maximize its positive impact upon the lives of the most vulnerable and marginalized, as an integral part of doing business.

During the first decade of its existence, ActionAid International India was our core funding supporter along with the Ford Foundation, India. With effect from January 2006 PiC has transitioned itself into a fully independent organization with a wide support base, including core funding from Oxfam (NoviB), Netherlands.

PiC operates through its head office in New Delhi and has regional presence in Mumbai, Jamshedpur, Bangalore and a field office in Tirupur, Tamil Nadu. Our team comprises 14 professionals as well as international researchers and consultants working on various Corporate Responsibility related initiatives.

PiC recognises that in order to successfully promote corporate responsibility it needs to work closely with variety of stakeholders, at national and international levels, and engages in strategic partnerships with like-minded organizations in furtherance of its mission.
