Research

If you would like to help with research, please contact Sirish and Jags. Potential areas for research include:

Government expenditures and implementation

  • What govt programs exist
  • What are the impediments to effective use of govt funds
  • How we can help in implementing some of these programs.
  • It's possible that often the problems are simple bottlenecks or misunderstandings by local govt employee leading to lack of implementation.

Improved Community Awareness

  • Efforts such as media, leaflets and brochures in local languages, education of doctors and parents, curriculum enhancements or extracullicular activities to promote mutual understanding, awareness, and respect.

Work by NGOs

  • Current efforts
  • Bottlenecks in work of NGOs
  • Collaborations with other NGOs, govt programs, and international groups

Know-how

  • Means of attracting and implementing knowledge and technology available internationally
  • improving research at Indian institutions providing local situations
  • Establishing new research centers

ASHA FOR EDUCATION

Asha for Education is a non-profit organization dedicated to socio-economic change in India. We believe that education is a critical element of socio-economic change.

In keeping with this focus, our volunteers get involved in identifying, researching, owning, and sustaining projects that target basic education.
