Education

Our projects, STiR Education, Streeksha, TeenBook India and Abhyuday, have improved various aspects of education, reaching teachers, parents and millions of children and young people across India by leveraging digital technology, engaging stakeholders, and responding to community needs.

Health

​Under our health domain, DC focuses on tackling anemia, boosting immunization, strengthening family planning and improving women’s health. Our projects Sampushti, Fortify Health, Suvita and Love Matters have championed DC’s contribution towards promoting good health and well-being (SDG 3), reducing hunger (SDG 2), challenging societal norms and advancing gender equality

Gender

Gender equality has been at the heart of almost all DC interventions. Our programmes, STEP (Shakti-The Empathy Project), Streeksha and Sampushti, have been focused on empowering women-led startups, fostering female entrepreneurship, bridging the education gap for women and ensuring quality health for women.

Youth & Empowerment

Through a cross-section of our programmes - STiR Education, TeenBook India, Sampushti, Streeksha and Love Matters India - we focus on providing reliable, scientific and quality information to young people and develop their capacities to help them make informed decisions that will help them improve their lives.
