About the Company
The common notion that business and working for social causes are mutually exclusive is being shattered by social entrepreneurship. While many organisations across the world are showing that the principles of entrepreneurship can be effectively applied to social causes, CSIM is a pioneer of this change in India. Based out of Hyderabad, they offer entrepreneurship training to social change agents. Their passion is to enable and multiply social change by empowering young, driven individuals.

Bridging the gap
In India, we see that food and food habits vary a lot from state to state and even within states! Some areas consume a wheat-based diet, while some eat rice as a staple. Even the vegetables, spices and oils used are very diverse. The diet followed in an area depends on many factors, of which geography and topography are major determinants. As a nutritionist knowing and understanding how food habits of a community evolve and change over time is key to serving a diverse clientele.
