I love my city!A concept for CSRNamrata Rana
Experience Forward Love Start Rebirth Inherit Design Care Gallery Play
Every city has a X factor, which
is a combination of many things
Experience Forward Love Start Rebirth Inherit Design Care Gallery Play
There is a need to connect with people in cities by taking forward the conversations around these elements.
In a rapidly changing India people are looking at older structures as inheritance that needs to be preserved
Revitalize things that have been lost along the way
Design for new urbanism
Care about causes
Start new movements
and most importantly PLAY in its various manifestations
I love My City! Guiding Principles 1
Connect to the aspiration of a city.
Make a genuine difference
Not just preservation but creation of a shared future with multiple initiatives.
Conversations and initiatives that create positive outcomes
I love My City! Guiding Principles 2
A connection with the city cannot be ephemeral
Genuine Impact is a medium to long term venture which moves beyond branding and into the realm of utility
To connect with the ‘X’ factor of the city, many activities conversations and events are needed that require multiple stakeholders and partners
This document prepares the groundwork and starts the dialogue with a specific ‘tasks to be done’ for the citizens being a focal point

WaterWe live in a hot country
The concept of a ‘PYOU’ or safe cool drinking water provided by individuals and communities in earthenware used to be a very common sight across our cities. This concept seems to have disappeared
The need for drinking water in a hot country has not gone away.
1 hour of rain can lead to storage of almost 20-30 litres of potable water that can be used for cooking and drinking.
With the right kind of recharging processes ground water can be recharged.
1. How do I start? - Tools and Methods
2. Let me talk to an expert3. Help me do it
Online Conversations
I love my city platform can help with online conversations around these questions
Partnerships
1. Connect with like minded experts and organisations who can help
TreesEach city was known for some specific trees
They fit in with the climate of the city. Somewhere along the way, either trees were felled or new exotic varieties ill-suited to the city were brought in.
To recharge the breathing spaces of the city we need to bring back the conversation around not just the green cover but the right green cover for the city.
I love my city platform can help with planting trees.
Planting
1. Plant the right trees for a city through the RWA / Colony association
2. Creation of an online Tree Champions Club
Reading RoomsInvesting in the future
Libraries have performed a role in sharing information and knowledge.
But there is pressure on the library model. The library is also facing pressure from e-books.
What if we can REIMAGINE public spaces with books and how they are sourced. Convert them into reading rooms - encourage reading habits, conversations and discussions.
1. Using the online platform to share / donate books
2. Make the book catalog available online
Book sourcing
I love my city platform can help with sourcing and distribution of books
Reading Rooms
1. Identify and refresh books in 8-10 centres in the city
2. These could be in a mall / hall in a charitable institution or in a school/educational institution
Helping HandsWork together for common causes
Many small things get held up because of inability to contact the right people or paucity of funds.
Playgrounds that need fixing, Stray dogs that need sterilisation, dirty spots that need cleaning are just some.
1. Get people and Resident associations to define small projects and action them through volunteerism
2. Financial support
On ground action
I love my city platform can help with small impactful projects
Map UtilitiesFinding services should be easy
The ability to find things online/on mobile is a big help.Clean toilets for women, playgrounds with swings that work, safe walking zones can easily be mapped by ordinary citizens
1. Online maps are crowdsourced and made readily available through online Apps.
2. Maybe partner either a map my india or google? to update their maps?
Map my services
