MANAGEMENT CENTRE FOR HUMAN VALUES

INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT - CALCUTTA

MCHV enshrines more than two decades of aspiration and effort to

hold up to the members of human organizations and institutions

through contemporary adaptations from the perennial corpus of Indian

and Psycho-Philosophical wisdom. At a time when large corporations

worldwide are being exposed for gross unethical practices, the

centre places primary emphasis on human values, the lack of which

has been largely responsible for many of the problems in modern

organisations. On such strong foundation of human values, the centre

builds its initiatives around such areas like applied ethics in

Management, Corporate reputation, Responsible corporate Governance

and Synthesis of the best of East and West. The centre takes a

holistic view of the organization and offers an integral model for

all round human development transcending the limited notion of the

techno-economic man. Created in1992, MCHV IIM Calcutta has delved

into the area of training for NGO's specifically in the fields of

management principles of practice. Its doctrine is to foster a value

based organizational culture which enhances holistic managerial

effectiveness for an ethically sound, socially responsible and

sustainable scenario.

THE CALCUTTA SAMARITANS,

THE REGIONAL RESOURCE & TRAINING CENTRE - EAST ZONE- II

The Calcutta Samaritans started their work in 1971. Due to Indo-

Bangladesh war & political turmoil in the states, more & more youth

were turning to various drugs & came to them in crisis, they

recognised Drug Dependence as a serious problem and offered

scientific treatment instead of blaming the dependents. With the

passing years activities of the organization has expanded manifold

and now include Detoxification and Rehabilitation for the Drug and

Alcohol users, Day Care, Needle Syringe Exchange program for the

Injecting Drug users, Night shelters, prevention of HIV/AIDS/STDs

among the Sex Workers, MSMs, Migrant Labourers & Drug users and

Rehabilitation through Vocational Trainings.

Towards the late 1990s and early 2000s the Ministry of Social

Justice and Empowerment (MSJE) realized that existing NGOs in the

fields of Drug Demand Reduction needed to improve their quality of

service delivery and expand their coverage by including new NGOs. To

increase the effectiveness and scope of its outreach, the Ministry,

in collaboration with the United Nation Drug Control Program,

Regional Office of South Asia (UNDCP ROSA) has identified Regional

Resource and Training Centres (RRTCs), based in NGOs, for different

regions of the country. The Calcutta Samaritans was one of the

selected few and was allotted with the responsibility of Bihar,

Jharkhand, Sikkim & Darjeeling part of West Bengal.

RRTCs are responsible for carrying out need based training

programmes for the professional development of service providers,

technical backstopping, assisting in programme implementation,

monitoring the trends of drug abuse in the respective regions and

accordingly provide feed back to the NCDAP and the Ministry for

formulation of national response. Recognising the strengths and

the effective training efforts undertaken by the RRTCs, they were

entrusted with the task of Capacity Building for the Targeted

Interventions by NACO in the States where they have been

strengthening the NGOs.
