| 内容記述 | Panasonic Corporation (Japan) has taken the lead among international companies to provide quality LED lighting in numerous developing countries through a unique Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program known as the The 100 Thousand Solar Lanterns Project. Since the initiative was launched in 2013, the company has donated more than 50,000 solar lights to households that have limited or no access to electricity in developing nations, including Cambodia, India, Vietnam and Myanmar. The purpose of this empirical research is to assess key socioeconomic changes after Panasonic solar lighting was provided to 250 families living in rural Maharashtra in 2015. The working hypothesis of this research is that solar lighting will have a direct, positive impact on the socioeconomic variables of education, health, income, family socialization and safety. In coordination with a community-based organization in rural Maharashatra, the researcher developed an assessment methodology to study various socioeconomic changes, measured against key baseline data. Two hundred fifty household recipients completed a detailed questionnaire; thereafter, the data was compiled and analyzed in accordance with SPHERE International Guidelines. Following this quantitative data collection phase, qualitative on-site interviews were conducted with solar light recipients to confirm the quantitative survey results and to provide relevant insight into research findings. The results of this academic inquiry support the primary hypothesis that solar lighting has an efficacious impact on improved child education. On average, children study hours increased 1.8 hours per day, resulting in improved school performance. Still another positive impact of solar lighting is a reduction in monthly home energy costs by more than 25 percent. Additionally, the use of solar lighting reduced household dependency on kerosene and battery recharging, enabling families to increase spending on education, nutrition, and medical care. |
