Workers in visibility | micrositeFocus areas: Informal Workers | Date of publication: 18 March 2021
It has only been a year since India witnessed the extreme vulnerability and painful exodus of its informal and migrant workforce from the largest cities as they were left without shelter, money, jobs, transport or food within days of India announcing a lockdown. This forced us to acknowledge the long-existing fault lines that led to a human crisis of such a scale, leading to an uncommon convergence of stakeholder groups that had hitherto been unlikely partners.
Building on that momentum driven by compassion, this website is envisaged as a one-stop page, continuously evolving to include insights and updates on all key players and initiatives working in this space. The is a shared space - we invite you to contribute resources, suggestions and feedback with us. Drop us an email on: [email protected] |

Data for Good Exchange India: Data Matters | Enabling Data Empowerment for India’s Most Vulnerable | Landscape Study, January 2021Focus area: Data For Good | Date of publication: 18 March 2021
India is an untapped well of raw information, and to turn that information into data-driven insights that fuel development, we need to ask the right questions. While great progress has already been made, there are still many opportunities to improve how data is collected, presented, and funded. We must address challenges around leveraging data for swift and effective decision-making to drive more efficient allocation of funds, more effective service delivery, higher accountability, and ultimately, more meaningful impact. We need to shift the conversation from data owners to data users and transform our data systems to empower society's most vulnerable — through improved awareness, access and agency — to become "first-mile data users". Data Matters explores the barriers, opportunities, and innovations that exist today within Indian civil society and philanthropy to accelerate this transformation, and rewrite India’s data narrative to be more equitable and empowering.
