Ramchandani, Raji Ajwani
- Abstract
The paper analyzes the mainstream approach towards the Base of the Pyramid in context to the Gandhian concept of the village economy. It propagates an integrated approach which involves various key stakeholders (viz. government, NGO, BOP, companies) such that the combined synergies of all the parties are utilized to develop a comprehensive and indigenous solution which can be beneficial to the stakeholders as well as preserve the fragile ecological and environmental balance in developing economies which usually have weak enforcement laws. The hugely successful "Wadi Model" developed and implemented by the Pune based BAIF in Gujarat has been explained to substantiate the point.
