The initiative prepares young women for leadership roles, thereby bridging the gender diversity gap in corporate India. Katalyst achieves this objective through a blend of unique development interventions, including our proprietary and scientifically researched curriculum. In addition to the 600 hours of blended learning that the girls undergo, over their four years in the program, Katalyst also provides one-to-one mentorship, access to best in class technology, assistance with internships, industry exposure and corporate interactions.
Set up with 10 young women, Katalyst now has chapters in Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and Delhi and has directly impacted the lives of over 900 girls. Katalyst alumni now occupy important positions in prestigious companies both in India and abroad and even in the Civil Services. The current cohort is 400 across all 4 cities and will further grow to 550 this year.

For people and nature to thrive together in India, decision makers in government and businesses must advance conservation programs that integrate economic growth with sustainability measures. India needs win-win, science-based solutions that are scalable and actionable. Those solutions are not always readily available to them. The Tata Trusts and The Nature Conservancy (TNC) are helping to bridge the gap between decision makers and science-producing organizations by catalyzing an Indian Centre for Applied Sustainability Solutions (ICASS). The Centre will facilitate the development of science-based solutions for on-the-ground sustainability and policy challenges, thereby offering decision-makers a path to balance economic growth with natural resource conservation. During this initial phase, we are advancing the development of a business plan for ICASS that will help determine the overall goals, objectives, model, and actions of the Centre. We are now seeking a consultancy to support the development of a fundraising plan and its execution to advance the business plan and develop financial sustainability for the Centre.
Consultancy Context:
The intention of ICASS is to build collaboration between research institutions, governments, civil society, industry, and nongovernmental organizations to address complex problems that require collective impact at an unprecedented scale. ICASS will support research and thought-leadership activities, as well as on-the-ground conservation projects that contribute to sustainable development goals, human well-being, economic growth, and conservation goals. A key role for ICASS is to facilitate information sharing across organizations so that organizations can work more effectively, avoid duplication of efforts, and bring programs to scale using the best tools and partnerships.
ICASS is still in a conceptual state. In its initial stages, it will be housed within TNC India and be a collaborative initiative managed with a variety of partners. The intent is for ICASS to mature into a standalone collaboration managed by a consortium of partners over time. A business plan is currently in development and scheduled to be finalized of the coming months. A key component to shaping the business plan is understanding government funding for related initiatives and engaging with prospective donors for their feedback on the Centre.
The purpose of this consultancy is to research current funding for science-based conservation efforts in India. This includes extensive research in current national and state government funding, as well as prospective donors for ICASS. This consultancy should help inform the business plan regarding if/how to leverage government funds in support of science-based conservation in India. It will also inform potential sources of funding for ICASS to be financial sustainable over time and identify key donors that should be engaged during the development of the Centre’s business plan to ensure it aligns with their priorities and helps build a collective effort. The research should consider the options for funding from within India and abroad, with an initial prioritization for donors based in India and should be complementary to current TNC fundraising efforts.
Scope of Work and Timeline
Phase 1: Research Government Funding for Similar Initiatives (2 months)
1. Prepare and submit a detailed work plan to complete the consultancy within the given timeframe.
2. Research current national and state government funding flows, outlining the funding department, what funds were invested in, and related outcomes (if available). Research sho

INTRODUCTION
Catholic Relief Services (CRS) is a US based relief and development agency working in over 100 countries/territories to alleviate poverty and suffering. In India, CRS has managed development and emergency programs across India since 1946. Currently, CRS works with local partners to support programs in India in the areas of health, livelihoods (agriculture/nutrition), women and child protection, disaster risk reduction, and emergency response.
Background: Agricultural Livelihoods is one of the three Signature Program Areas of the Catholic Relief Services (CRS) Agency Strategy 2014-2018. Working through local partners, CRS aims to provide poor rural farming families with the assets, skills and links to markets and services that they require to live more dignified, prosperous and resilient lives. CRS is committed to working with vulnerable families all along the pathway to prosperity. CRS supports rural families in their bid to leave poverty, attain food security, and achieve incremental gains in prosperity through three stages: Recover, Build and Grow. Each phase includes asset building, risk reduction and changes to systems and structures that support long term resilience and the ability to rebound from shocks, in line with CRS’s Integral Human Development framework. In India, strengthening agricultural livelihoods is a critical component of reducing poverty for poor, marginalized households, and therefore is a priority programming area for CRS/India. CRS supports agricultural livelihoods in various programs in India. In Bihar CRS supports a large project that links agricultural research institutions, district research and extension bodies, and farmer groups to develop and disseminate technologies to improve the productivity of agriculture in flood-prone and drought-prone areas. CRS is also supporting livelihoods strengthening activities in Bihar as part of efforts to reduce child migration, child labour, and other forms of trafficking. In Orissa and Assam CRS supports livelihood strengthening among communities vulnerable to emergencies as part of projects to increase community preparedness and resilience and reduce risks from disasters. CRS is also beginning collaboration with the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) in Orissa to improve agricultural productivity among smallholder farmers. CRS’ relief and recovery efforts following emergencies also include components to help recover livelihood opportunities. In addition to agricultural crop productivity enhancement, CRS/India livelihood activities include agro-enterprise development, value chain strengthening, livestock production, links to microfinance, and other approaches. CRS seeks opportunities to build on its ongoing work to expand the scale and impact of its livelihoods work. In addition to new funding for CRS projects focused on livelihoods, such growth opportunities may entail new types of partnerships such as collaborations with institutions that provide funding directly to CRS’ local partners. Learning is a central part of CRS’ work, and CRS values opportunities to try innovative program approaches and apply rigorous monitoring and evaluation systems to understand and improve program interventions. CRS is seeking a candidate who is driven by learning and who seeks technical support to complement his/her own skills. A successful candidate will have strong experience in market-based agriculture programming, and experience in livelihoods recovery (post-emergency). CRS is seeking an individual that is able to facilitate learning, and empower community, partner staff, and colleagues to enhance and improve capacity in livelihoods programming.

This study explores a potential source of friction in markets for casual labor: high worker absenteeism. Markets for casual labor are important in low-income settings as firms primarily hire from these markets, and households rely heavily on casual labor wage earnings.
Despite unemployment rates being high, casual laborers appear to frequently renege on existing work arrangements with employers. Subsequently, firms incur various costs in dealing with high rates of unplanned absenteeism. The study aims to test the existence of a demand for flexibility in work arrangements among casual laborers using a field experiment in Odisha, one of India’s poorest states (Raghuram Rajan Committee Report, 2013).

Overview
A tried and tested Entrepreneurial Leader to drive a new, distinctive ‘Social Enterprise Development’ program from its conceptualization to scale for the IFMR Graduate School of Business at KREA University with program locations in Jaipur and Chennai. The CEO will be responsible for designing long term program strategy, including the definition of key innovation areas, development of products & services having strategic and long-term value, establishment of key operational & funding partnerships, as well as setting up and managing an execution team to achieve defined goals. The role will be initially based in Jaipur, Rajasthan.
Context: Atal Innovation Center CATALYST-IFMR
Catalyst was set up in 2016 as a donor funded program focused on investigating coordination and market facilitation gaps to accelerate digital payment adoption & usage in micro merchant ecosystems as a stepping stone for access to broader financial services such as savings, credit, and insurance. It was set up in Jaipur under an anchor partnership with the Govt. of Rajasthan, and has advised the Ministry of Finance, National Digital Payment Mission and NitiAayog. Since its inception, it has worked in the areas of (i) supply chain payments, (ii) digital payment acceptance by fixed store as well as roving businesses, and (iii) digital finance for the urban poor households. As part of these efforts, it also set up a product incubator ‘Fintech for the Last Mile’ to promote new solutions and entrepreneurs specifically addressing last mile pain points of traditionally underserved communities. It is now keen to extend its product innovation efforts to micro enterprises in peri-urban and rural geographies, linking these initiatives more tightly to ongoing programs to strengthen livelihoods and promote market linkages.
Recently, Catalyst was selected for a five year grant by the Atal Innovation Mission at the NitiAyog to set up an Atal Incubation Centre (AIC) in Jaipur as a separate legal entity under IFMR. The primary goal of this Incubator is to identify high quality startups from across India to help them design and implement scalable solutions to catalyze last mile financial inclusion. It will build on Catalyst’s previous efforts and scale its successful initiatives. It will also tap into synergies with the broader IFMR university ecosystem. Over a five-year horizon, the scope of the program may also extend beyond fintech to other priority inclusive technology domains such as education, health, agriculture, etc. Catalyst intends to leverage strategic partnerships to enable additional sponsorships to support & grow the program, tap venture funding for participating and promising startups, drive new industry relevance, and support policy advocacy for innovative business models to emerge and scale.
Catalyst’s parent organization, IFMR, under new and dynamic leadership is itself undergoing a transformation with the launch of KREA University to set up a new paradigm in immersive education. Organizationally, the Catalyst incubator will fall under the ambit of the IFMR Graduate School of Business at KREA University, which will contribute resources to advance its mission as well as enable synergies with its own curricula and student body.

INTRODUCTION
This organization is a new initiative by Manasi Kirloskar. She is looking to create open - ended creative toys for kids. The company and project’s aim is to re-imagine a child’s learning process in schools. The traditional method of learning subjects, such as Mathematics, Science/s, English, in isolation may not prepare a student to adopt certain ‘21st century skills’ required to fulfill future job profiles. The idea is to create “S.T.E.A.M” (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) kits to encourage early innovation and entrepreneurship for young students. Creating projects that combine all the S.T.E.A.M values in its truest sense will allow for deep learning and application of concepts (especially technical ones) taught in the classroom in addition to develop social skills, communication skills, and leadership qualities.
PROFILE OF MANASI KIRLOSKAR – THE FOUNDER
The only child of renowned industrialists, Vikram Kirloskar and Geetanjali Kirloskar – Manasi Kirloskar, tops the list for having charted an uptrend in her early years. Intelligent with a down to earth personality she is a highly competent next generation business icon. Industrialist, Entrepreneur, Philanthropist, Painter, and Manasi is committed to carry forward the lineage of the 180 years Kirloskar values. Manasi Kirloskar, executive director and CEO, Kirloskar Systems Limited, has just been appointed as the first United Nations in India Young Business Champion for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As part of her new role, the emerging young business leader will be responsible for focusing on the role of business in development, and will also work with the UN on issues such as climate change, plastic and waste management, and women empowerment. A graduate from The Rhode Island School of Design, she worked with Toyota Kirloskar Motor for three years before launching Toyota Material Handling Private Limited. One of her first projects after graduation was to set up as a 300-bed multi-specialty hospital in a joint venture arrangement with a Japanese hospital chain—she worked with specialised materials to build a vibrant environment to aid the healing process at Sakra World Hospital in Bengaluru. And today, one of her latest initiatives is a residential complex, and she has a commercial project in the planning stages too. Kirloskar is also the managing trustee and CEO of Caring with Colour, a non-profit initiative that promotes classroom learning through the arts and activities focused on exploration and innovation. When asked about her new role, Manasi said, “With privilege comes responsibility and social accountability. I am honoured and inspired by this opportunity to work with the UN as their first Young Business Champion. The SDGs present a unique opportunity for the industry to participate in India’s growth story for generations to come. Businesses have the potential to become catalysts and accelerators of sustainable development. Through my work here, I look forward to amplifying this message amongst all young business leaders, whether employed, or employers in start-ups themselves.”
For Manasi Kirloskar, community service has been an ongoing effort, blending naturally with her Painting and her day to day living. While at High School at Singapore’s United World College Manasi won an award for community service. She travelled to Cambodia from her school for Community Service work, where she helped building houses and digging wells in remote Cambodian villages. She visited the Death Field Museum where a black and white image of an old prison lady caught her att

Project Background:
The Nature Conservancy is working in the Central Indian Highlands (CIH) region (across Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh) to implement several terrestrial and freshwater conservation projects. This landscape is rich in biodiversity, large tracts of high-quality tropical forests, and the headwaters of major peninsular rivers. The landscape has a population of around 55 million, two-thirds of which reside in rural areas. Adivasis constitute nearly a quarter of the total population.
Within this context, TNC is implementing field projects and analysis to support biodiversity, carbon, and livelihood benefits. We have four major areas of work within our Lands program – integrated landscape design to conserve high value conservation lands and support sustainable development, community conservation to protect and restore forest and common lands through assisted natural regeneration activities, agroforestry and rewilding actions on agricultural and FRA lands, and riparian revegetation projects with communities.
Our current field project portfolio includes riparian revegetation with local communities and government, establishing new agroforestry clusters, and scoping opportunities for community-based conservation measures across the landscape. Over the next several years, we will be launching several new field projects while ensuring current projects are successfully implemented with partners and achieving the desired results.
We are seeking a Field Projectsand Partners Consultant to help implement field projects, scope and design new projects, build partnerships and relationships across the landscape, and broadly support our greater conservation strategy within the Central Indian Highlands.
The initial phase of this Contract will focus on supporting the design and implementation of our riparian revegetation work along the Narmada River in Hoshangabad district, Madhya Pradesh. Our current project goal is tosupport improved conservation and revegetation along 100 kilometres of riparian zone of Narmada in the CIH through community-based approaches that support local livelihoods.
We currently have two sites in progress with local communities and government and have selected a third site for revegetation activities. In the near term, we will implement additional sites and test new methods for revegetation and/or restorationto improve the conservation outcomes. The Consultant will work with our current team members to initially coordinate implementation, outreach, and overall riparian revegetation and restoration project strategy.
As this project progresses, the Consultant role will also scope and establish new partnerships and potential projects related to other Central Indian Highlands landscape strategies, such as assisted natural regeneration, agroforestry, and /or other conservation activities.
This position is for a long-term consultant with annual renewal based on performance and agreed upon deliverables.
Scope of Work:

Project Background:
India has committed to achieving 40% cumulative electric power generation from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030 and simultaneously creating an additional carbon sink of 2.5 – 3 billion tonnes of CO2 eq.

We are working with partners to enhance an online tool that guides decision makers in siting renewable energy projects, by adding selection criteria on land use, land type, and suitability for ecological restoration, alongside existing economic and technological criteria. This will help decision makers identify land with low ecological and social values that are suitable for setting up solar and wind plants, thereby avoiding impacts to sensitive natural areas and reducing conflicts for renewable energy to facilitate their rapid deployment. We are piloting this effort in the states of Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh with possible expansion to additional states with high rates of solar and wind development.
