Developing Indigenous Resources (DIR) strives to improve
life-standards in the most neglected areas of
developing countries.

Our chief expertise is in developing the resources
of communities so the residents are empowered to
solve their own most serious problems.

We believe the best solution to a problem is brought to it
by the people who have the problem, and therefore the best
course of action is to develop indigenous resources.

We are a charitable non-profit 501(c)3 incorporated
in the State of California.

DIR in India:

 

In a crowded slum where almost 14,000 people live in some 3,300 tiny homes, located just outside Chandigarh, capital of the Punjab, DIR has a project being implemented by the residents.  These "bustees" are called Janta Colony and Adarsh Nagar.
