What to Support

Name of the IEEE Program 

IEEE Smart Village 

IEEE Smart Village (ISV) has a unique approach to support the world’s energy-impoverished communities by providing a comprehensive solution combining renewable energy, community-based education, and entrepreneurial opportunities. ISV provides seed funding to carefully selected community entrepreneurs based upon a credible business plan that will impact a significant number of people with electricity, education, and jobs.

IEEE India MOVE

IEEE MOVE India Outreach is a program committed to assisting first-responding organizations with short-term communications, computer, and power solutions to support the victims of natural disasters through first responders. These temporary emergency relief provisions help those affected stay connected and make sure they can access the help they need. Services include phone charging, internet & communications support, and lighting to disaster victims through strategically designed disaster tool-kit or IEEE MOVE vehicle. When the vehicle is not deployed for natural disasters, MOVE volunteers conduct community outreach and facilitate learning opportunities for students and the general public in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM), and Disaster Awareness.

Internet in Disaster location in partnership with ISF

In partnership with Internet Society Foundation, GIEEE is promoting internet in disaster location. The goal of the project is to transform the lives of rural communities through the power of the internet, especially in disaster-prone selected villages in three states (Karnataka, Kerala, and Bihar) in India. Apart from this the project also promotes the use of the internet among villagers through the concept of the digital classroom. The digital classroom will build awareness of the internet and promote positive use of the internet among villagers, especially women and children. 

EPICS IN IEEE

EPICS IN IEEE: Providing both university and high school students the opportunity to work with engineering professionals and non-profit organizations to develop innovative solutions that transform communities around the world. This unique blend of technology and service-learning education delivers four critical benefits which include Workforce Development, Professional skills, non-profit support, and Advancing STEM.

IEEE SIGHT (Special Interest Group on Humanitarian and Technology) / HTC (Humanitarian and Technology Conference)

IEEE SIGHT (Special Interest Group on Humanitarian and Technology): is a global network of groups consisting of IEEE members and volunteers who identify and address local problems by applying their technical skills and partnering with their local communities. 

HTC (Humanitarian and Technology Conference): is a premier annual cross-disciplinary conference. It provides a common platform for engineers, technologists, scientists, representatives from NGOs, governments, academia, industry, and investors to discuss recent advances in Humanitarian Technologies.

PES Scholarship

PES Scholarship: PES is committed to shaping the future of the power and energy industry through the IEEE PES Scholarship Plus Initiative. Our undergraduate engineering scholarships aim to accomplish this goal by attracting highly qualified engineering students to the field. These students are the very individuals who will one day develop new green technologies, build the smart grid, and change the way we generate and utilize power.

E-Learning Lab ( Industry-academia and IEEE partnership)

E-Learning Lab (Industry-academia and IEEE partnership): IIP closely works with industries through IEEE. IIP is also associated with academia, especially with colleges, their staff, and students. IIP is looking forward to leveraging this partnership to catalyze innovation and growth in technology Industry often focuses on addressing solutions that are of near-term commercial value and academia focuses on building new knowledge through research and imparting education to students, IIP is playing the role of facilitator to combine the efforts which can yield accelerated development of new breakthrough. Few existing initiatives include the E-Mobility lab in Christ funded by CSR of Saffran and the EMC lab in Vellore institute by IEEE EMC Society. 

Smart Class

Smart Class is to improve the teaching-learning experience through the use of technology and curriculum based audio-visual modules in  local languages to make learning more interesting for students, thus ensuring greater attendance in school and increased attentiveness in class and to impact the learning outcome of the students in terms of improved retention, sharpened capacities for logical and critical thinking, improved language abilities etc.

Women in Engineering (WIE)

Women in Engineering (WIE) is a global network of IEEE members and volunteers dedicated to promoting women engineers and scientists, and inspiring girls around the world to follow their academic interests in a career in engineering and science. "IEEE WIE pledge to work towards gender-diversified panels at all IEEE meetings, conferences, and events, including our own." WIE strives to provide assistance to form new IEEE WIE Affinity Groups, support WIE activities, recognize outstanding achievements of women, organize workshops and major technical conferences to promote WIE, Advocate women in leadership roles, development of programs and activities that promote the entry and retention of women at the workplace, mentoring young women in junior and high schools to mention a few.
