Chitkara University becomes a member of Clinton Global Initiative University (CGI U) Network
Chitkara University is the first and only university from India to be granted the prestigious membership of Clinton Global Initiative University (CGI U) Network. The CGI University Network consists of higher education institutions and professionals who support, mentor, and provide seed funding to leading student innovators and entrepreneurs on their respective campuses. The U Network aims to provide support to prospective and current CGI U students, and it also serves as a distinct global professional development opportunity for administrators and professors.
Building on a lifetime of public service, President Bill Clinton founded the Clinton Foundation on the fundamental premise that everyone deserves a chance to succeed, that everyone has a responsibility to act, and that we all do better when we work together. These beliefs have fueled the Foundation’s efforts to address major challenges, create new opportunities, and make a difference in people’s lives in the United States and around the world for more than two decades. As an operating foundation, their programs and the partnerships they build work to expand economic opportunity, improve public health, confront the climate crisis, and inspire citizen engagement and service. The Foundation also operates the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, which enhances these efforts by providing year-round educational and cultural programming and is home to the Clinton Presidential Library and Museum.
The Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) brings together established and emerging leaders from around the world to develop and implement solutions to the world’s most pressing problems. Through its distinctive model, CGI collaborates with partners to inspire action. CGI enables action by enabling members connect, communicate, and build Commitments to Action – innovative, precise, and measurable plans that solve global concerns — rather than actively implementing initiatives.
