DevInsights has played a crucial role in governance projects, including a landmark assessment of transparency initiatives in local government. Our research identified gaps in accountability and citizen participation, leading to the adoption of more robust governance frameworks. Our work supports efforts to strengthen democratic processes and encourage civic engagement across various levels of government.
Governance
Gender equality is not just a basic human right; it forms an essential basis for a world that is peaceful, prosperous, and sustainable. While there has been some advancement in recent decades, global progress toward achieving gender equality by 2030, as emphasized by the United Nations, is insufficient. The UN stresses that women and girls constitute half of the world’s population, representing an equal share of its potential. In gender-focused projects, DevInsights has analysed the impact of women’s empowerment programs and initiatives to combat gender-based violence. A recent evaluation of a national gender equality program revealed key success factors in promoting women’s rights and participation in governance. These findings were instrumental in shaping ongoing efforts to enhance gender equity and improve women’s socio-economic status.
Gender
Access to education is not simply a privilege, but a fundamental human right. It is an indispensable tool for development and remains one of the most effective ways to reduce poverty, promote gender equality, and ensure peace and stability. Education is crucial for establishing fairness and inclusivity and yields significant and reliable returns in terms of income. The team at DevInsights has contributed significantly to the education sector by assessing the impact of teacher training programs. One notable project involved evaluating the effectiveness of digital learning platforms in bridging education gaps during the pandemic. Our analysis highlighted best practices that were adopted into national education strategies to promote inclusive education and improve learning outcomes for underprivileged children.
Education
In livelihoods research, DevInsights evaluated the outcomes of rural microfinance and vocational training programs. By examining the long-term impacts on income generation and economic resilience, the findings helped refine livelihood support policies aimed at women and marginalized communities. This research empowered local stakeholders to create sustainable economic opportunities.
Livelihood
The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals aim to provide universal access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) globally by 2030. However, over 844 million people worldwide still lack access to basic drinking water, while more than 2.3 billion people lack access to basic sanitation. Furthermore, millions of girls are forced to abandon their studies each year due to menstrual hygiene issues, and hygiene-related illnesses like diarrhea and pneumonia continue to be the leading cause of death for children under age five. Shockingly, more children die from WASH-related causes than from malaria, AIDS, and tuberculosis combined. DevInsights has implemented research and evaluation in several WASH projects, notably a large-scale sanitation improvement project in schools. We analyzed the impact of improved sanitation facilities on student health and school attendance. Our work has informed nationwide hygiene promotion campaigns, contributing to reductions in waterborne diseases and increased school enrolment.
WASH
DevInsights has contributed to renewable energy and climate change mitigation through projects that evaluate the effectiveness of community-based renewable energy systems. One of our flagship projects assessed solar energy implementation in disaster-prone areas. The research emphasized the need for scalable, community-led energy solutions that enhance resilience to climate change impacts.
Renewable Energy and Climate Change
Maximizing the potential of an organization can be achieved by utilizing the expertise of all its staff members. Workforces possess a wealth of knowledge that often remains untapped, either isolated within specific individuals or departments. In knowledge management, DevInsights helped organizations streamline knowledge-sharing practices across multiple stakeholders. A standout project involved developing a learning and documentation framework for a large-scale health initiative, ensuring that valuable insights from fieldwork were accessible for policy formulation and program adaptation across geographies.
Knowledge Management
Child Protection is a critical aspect that involves preventing and addressing exploitation, abuse, neglect, harmful practices, and violence against children, as outlined by UNICEF. DevInsights has worked extensively on child protection programs, particularly in assessing interventions that address child labour and abuse. A recent project evaluated the effectiveness of a national child welfare scheme, providing insights into improving protection mechanisms for vulnerable children. Our recommendations led to policy revisions and greater investment in community-level child safety initiatives.
Child Protection
Millions of people in India are facing nutrient-deficient diets as it becomes a part of their everyday life. As per WHO, India holds the record for the largest undernourished population in the world. There are several reasons for the serious levels of malnutrition seen in the country. In the nutrition space, DevInsights conducted a comprehensive evaluation of a national nutrition initiative targeting children under five. This study assessed the program's effectiveness in combating malnutrition and providing fortified foods in vulnerable areas. The project contributed to the design of targeted food security interventions and helped optimize resource allocation for better health outcomes.
Nutrition
DevInsights has led multiple projects in maternal and child health, particularly focusing on rural healthcare access. One significant project involved analysing community health worker programs to improve immunization rates and maternal care. This research was instrumental in guiding state healthcare policies, improving the quality of healthcare services, and reducing infant mortality rates.
