Work 4 Progress India

W4P India is committed to developing an enabling ecosystem, which can strengthen communities within their contexts. It is based on a four-fold approach: 1.Build bridges through dialogue: The program emphasises building bridges between communities and stakeholders, enabling and empowering them to access and attract resources for local entrepreneurship and job creation 2.Incubate innovative solutions through co-creation: The program retains its spirit of co-creation, where listening to and co-creating with diverse voices in the community and stakeholders unlocks innovation 3. Create shifts through prototyping: The program deepens its focus on social aspects, creating reinforcements for challenges of safety and mobility for women, connectivity for youth and as well as patriarchal and social barriers 4.Share infrastructure for acceleration: In order to demonstrate the transition to an inclusive economy, the program envisions itself to be a shared and safe space for diverse partners in the ecosystem for mainstreaming. The implementation approach is assisted by Developmental Evaluation to initiate internal monitoring and learning on quantitative and qualitative indicators. It enables continuous feedback loops and iterations to ensure contextualisation of solutions and deep-set change. The learnings inform evidence-based practice and knowledge exchange with partners across different geographies in India. The 10+ team deploys lean and cross-sharing of competencies to ensure deployment of the approach and capture evidence and value created in W4P communities.
