Outline India

Outline India collaborated with the World Resources Institute (WRI) India as their data collection partner for a research project. This study delved into the connection between migration and climate resilience in India, examining both the areas people were leaving (sending regions) and the cities they were migrating to (destination cities). Its primary objective was to document the impact of climate events and gradual environmental changes on migration trends and decisions.
The study's main emphasis was on providing concrete empirical data to facilitate fair policymaking. By doing so, it aimed to bridge a substantial gap in data and knowledge. Ultimately, this research sought to contribute to the development of policies that promote environmental justice, poverty alleviation, social inclusion, and overall sustainable development.

Outline India collaborated with CDDEP (Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics, and Policy) to carry out surveys targeting call center employees and supervisors. The primary objective of these surveys was to gain insight into their perspectives on mental health, pollution, and the COVID-19 pandemic, and how these factors influenced their productivity.
The surveys were conducted via telephone, engaging approximately 1800 respondents across six different cities. Outline India played a crucial role in the project, encompassing pretesting of survey tools, the collection and refinement of data, and the distribution of incentives to the participating respondents.

Outline India will be conducting a telephonic survey with 3000 stakeholders in the Hoshangabad and Narsinghpur districts of Madhya Pradesh to understand the increasing revenue recovery of electricity distribution companies and measure the willingness of the consumers to pay their bills.

1. Attitudes and Knowledge regarding the application of AI in TB diagnosis.
2. Awareness of how AI contributes to expediting and enhancing the efficiency of TB diagnosis.
3. The extent to which these Informal Providers incorporate AI, if at all, in diagnosing TB in their patients.
4. The capability and readiness of these providers to employ AI methodologies in TB diagnosis.

Outline India collaborated with Sesame Workshop India to carry out an Endline study for Project Bright Start/Play.Learn.Connect.
The overarching objective of this initiative was to showcase a quantifiable improvement in the learning and development of children, with a specific emphasis on socio-emotional learning and the dissemination of health and nutrition knowledge. This was achieved by empowering parents and caregivers within urban slum communities, enabling them to engage in meaningful and playful learning experiences while prioritizing the holistic well-being of their children.
