Map of India

Indian civilization dates back to 2500 B.C., when the inhabitants of the Indus River valley developed an urban culture based on commerce and sustained by agricultural trade. Today, India is home to more than 1 billion people, ranking second only to China as the world's most populous country. Thirty-five percent of India's people live on less than U.S.$1 a day.

Compassion's work in India began in 1968.
