Description

About The/Nudge
The/Nudge is an action institute working towards a poverty-free India within our lifetime. We partner with governments, markets, and civil society to build resilient livelihoods for all.

We are a collective of some of India's best leaders and entrepreneurs from across industry, academia, government, and development sectors, and our work is organized across three impact streams:

Centre for Skill Development & Entrepreneurship (CSDE): enables underprivileged youth to lead flourishing lives Centre for Rural Development (CRD): enables rural families to come out of extreme poverty Centre for Social Innovation (CSI): nudges top talent to solve India's biggest challenges
Impact Hub Vision

The Impact hub aims to be a credible and reputed M&E and Knowledge centre for the livelihood ecosystem, conducting high-quality evaluations and research while it continues to be the Impact measurement and Management function for all T/NIs programs internally.

We participate and partner with the best-in-class organizations (government, market, and civil society) and create knowledge products (evidence, insight reports, white papers, etc.) to generate actionable insights, with a particular focus on evaluations and action research.

All this while, the most important thing for the Hub is to firmly root itself in field realities and continuously adapt to the ever-evolving ecosystem.
