What We Do
Gurugram is one of the fastest growing metropolitan cities in India. It witnessed urbanisation at an annual growth rate of 119% between 2001 and 2011 (Urban Mass Transit Company, 2010). Gurugram is considered a pioneer model of public-private partnership in land development projects across the country. Due to proximity with the Delhi airport and National Capital Territory, and being situated right on the National Highway-8, the city is very approachable for residential, commercial and tertiary sector industrial developments.

DLF Foundation worked towards an initiative on improving the air quality in DLF areas. While there are localised and non-localised factors that contribute towards air pollution, we looked into and worked towards the local factors which were in our direct control. We installed air quality monitors in July 2017 in association with Atlanta Healthcare and started actively monitoring the air quality August 2017 onwards. While we installed these monitors at several places, we picked the DLF Golf Course installation as the pilot case to undertake on-ground initiatives which helped lower the air pollution levels. Using the monitoring systems, we kept a check on the impact of some of these initiatives on improving air quality.

An initiative by Tabono Sports in association with DLF Foundation
The 3rd edition of HDFC Bank Millennium City Marathon held in Gurugram witnessed more than 5,000 participants. The marathon saw participation from across age groups with numerous senior citizens as well as youngsters participating. The marathon was a joint initiative by Tabono Sports & Events and DLF Foundation.
It was an initiative to bring the diverse people of Gurugram together on a platform of health to create awareness about the importance of fitness and above all, to feel a part of the same city that is home to all of us. Almost 50% of the participants from the 5 km run category were first time runners. This goes to prove that more and more people are taking up running as a part of their fitness regime.

Its Delhi-NCR chapter, which was inaugurated in July 2017, was invited by DLF for starting activities of relevance to the senior citizens of Gurugram. Col. Prakash Tewari, Executive Director, DLF Foundation, championed the cause of senior citizens in Gurugram, and was the principle catalyst in setting up this centre at DLF Community Centre, Phase 2.

DLF Foundation, under our Model Village Project, undertook several infrastructure development projects for the improvement of Tikli village. The objective was to convert the village into a smart village modelled on Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana of the Government of India. Tikli is located near Badshapur in the Gurugram, district of Haryana. It has a population of around 10,000 people.
After undertaking a thorough review, study and onsite visits of existing models, we were prepared to set a benchmark for social and economic development model in a rural location, primarily with an agri-based rural economy to create a DLF Model Village project in Tikli. We used DLF’s own set of parameters in reference to the Human Development Index and Sustainable Development Goals.
