Rishihood University, Sonipat and OMI Foundation — a leading social innovation think tank dedicated to mobility innovation and public good — have signed an MoU to establish a Centre of Excellence at the varsity’s campus in Sonipat. It will be focused on accelerating the adoption of sustainable mobility solutions in India and beyond. This centre will serve as a hub for research, innovation, and knowledge exchange in the field of mobility.
The partnership will also facilitate joint research initiatives aimed at advancing sustainable mobility solutions, promoting the adoption of clean energy sources, enhancing accessibility in transportation, exploring the future of work in the platform economy, and devising comprehensive urban and rural planning strategies.
Moreover, Rishihood University students will have access to research programmes offered by OMI Foundation, enabling them to participate in live projects, dissertations, or capstone projects. This hands-on experience will empower students to gain valuable insights and contribute to real-world impact. Both organisations will exchange resources, publish joint research, and collaborate on capacity-building initiatives such as workshops, seminars, and public events.
The collaboration will extend to Rishihood University’s 8th edition of the Policy BootCamp, with joint resources and workshops dedicated to guiding students towards careers in sustainability and policy.
The MoU signifies a shared dedication to catalysing positive change and addressing pressing societal challenges through collaborative research, education, and community engagement.
