The Purpose Behind the Project
The NGO supporting this project had one question:
“How are our interventions really helping the people on the ground?”
To answer that, we went to where the story begins—schools, homes, and fields.
This wasn’t just data collection—it was community listening.
Who We Engaged With
We connected with voices that matter most:
👦 Children—the future of the community
👩🏫 Teachers—changemakers in classrooms
🧓 Farmers—pillars of the local economy
👩 Anganwadi staff – champions of child development
Each interaction added depth to the data. It wasn’t numbers—it was narratives.
What We Explored on the Ground
We observed and evaluated how the NGO’s support systems were being used and perceived, including:
📺 Digital TVs in classrooms
💧 RO water purification units
🌞 Solar-powered streetlights
🧼 Sanitation infrastructure
📚 ELPA (Early Learning Program Assessments)
🗣️ English Lab experiences
🔥 Sanitary napkin incinerators
Every feature spoke volumes about access, awareness, and actual use.
Study Objectives
🔹 Evaluate real-life impact of existing support across villages and schools
🔹 Collect direct feedback from everyday users
🔹 Identify gaps where resources or awareness were lacking
🔹 Support the NGO in shaping better, more focused future interventions
Because good intentions need solid insights to succeed.
Real-World Challenges We Faced

Challenges that tested our adaptability—but didn’t slow us down.
Our Solutions in Action

✅ Scheduled interviews before/after school hours and off-peak times
✅ Trained our team on digital data tools—no pen-paper gaps, no lost insights
✅ Created checklists for consistent data capture
We turned every roadblock into a stepping stone toward precision.
