PROJECT BACKGROUND:

Airports are increasingly recognized as engines of local economic growth. As the aviation sector rapidly expands across India, airports are emerging as vital hubs that not only generate employment within their ecosystem but also attract new businesses to their surrounding areas. However, the economic development around airports has often been overlooked, resulting in unplanned land use, haphazard urban expansion, and the emergence of informal settlements lacking basic infrastructure. These conditions hinder the employability of local populations and limit the socio-economic potential of nearby communities.
