From a modest beginning in 1983, as a rural development communication initiative launched through a
wall newspaper Gram Gadar (“Village Revolution”), CUTS International has achieved significant growth both
geographically and in terms of its functional areas.
Its work spans a multi-pronged agenda targeted to the realisation of CUTS’ Vision of ‘Consumer Sovereignty’
and its Mission of consumer sovereignty in the framework of social justice, economic equality and environmental
balance, within and across borders. CUTS has emerged as a key centre for promoting regulatory reforms, private
sector development, fiscal policy, consumer welfare, and competition law and policy across developing countries.
