(IIMACORE)
It has been about a month since relief efforts were initiated in the aftermath of the earthquake which hit Gujarat on January 26, 2001. IIMACORE has played its own role in these efforts. Members of the IIMA community—faculty, staff and students—had involved themselves in direct relief, coordinating supplies to the affected areas through NGO networks, and providing support wherever needed. Since the relief phase has passed, IIMACORE proposes to phase out its relief initiative effective from March 1, 2001.
