Capacity Building
Kudumbashree Writeshop K B Sudheer, SMM (SM & ID) CAPACITY BUILDING What is Capacity Building? Capacity Building (CB) is a process by which individuals and organizations obtain, improve, and retain the skills, knowledge, tools, equipment and other resources needed to do their jobs competently or to a greater capacity (larger scale, larger audience, larger impact, etc). Capacity building is a conceptual approach to social, behavioural change and leads to infrastructure development. It simultaneously focuses on understanding the obstacles that inhibit people, governments, or any non-governmental organizations (NGOs), from realizing their development goals and enhancing the abilities that will allow them to achieve measurable and sustainable results. Human resources in any organizations are a key determinant of its success and are often the “face” of the organization to its stakeholders and collaborators. Maintaining a well-trained, well-qualified human resource is a critical function of the management. Kudumbashree also believes in capacity building of its staff for strengthening the skills, competencies and abilities of people and communities in the organisation so they can achieve their goals and potentially overcome the causes of their exclusion and suffering. Organizational capacity building is used by Kudumbashree to guide their organisational development and also personal growth of its personnel. Capacity Building helps in methods of CB. • Ensuring an organization’s clarity of mission – this involves evaluating an organization’s goals and how 1.

The Urban Learning Internship Program
Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs Ministry of Human Resource Development The Urban Learning Internship Program GUIDELINES FOR ULBs/ SMART CITIES The Urban Learning Internship Program (TULIP) “India will experience the largest wave of urbanisation in the world in the next two decades. It is a challenge, but also a huge responsibility and opportunity. ” “India’s Yuva Shakti is excelling in every sphere of activity. With holistic efforts, our Government is creating the right ecosystems where energy, enthusiasm, strong intent and good ideas of our youth power the vision of Self-reliant and Self-sufficient India.” Narendra Modi Prime Minister Urbanisation in India has become an important and irreversible process and is an important determinant of national economic growth and poverty reduction. The process of urbanization is characterized by a dramatic increase in the number of large cities, as India transitions from a predominantly rural to a urban society. The 2030 development agenda of the United Nations has emphasized the role of sustainable cities by incorporating Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) i.e. Sustainable Cities and Communities for making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable. There are close to 4400 cities and towns in India with around 40 crore inhabitants today. At current rate of growth, urban population in India is estimated to reach 60 crores by 2030. According to Census 2011, as many as 53 cities in India had a million plus population. It is projected that more than 50% of the country’s population will be urban by 2050. It is acknowledged that this transition to a urban society, however, has not been accompanied by a commensurate increase in the supply of basic urban services like water supply, sewerage and drainage network, solid/liquid waste management facilities, city-wide roads, public transport and public safety systems like street lighting and pedestrian pathways. -

The Journey of Urban India: from Conventional Policy Implementation to Disruptive Transformation
The journey of urban India: from conventional policy implementation to disruptive transformation Technology has become the prime enabler for Urban Transformation. One of the highlights of Smart City Mission has been promotion of technology for enabling city administration and to enhance efficiency and cost optimization. As a result, the urban sector witnessed a tremendous influx of technology in non- conventional areas. This report “The Urban Saga: From Conventional Policy Implementation to Disruptive Transformation” talks about the shift in the urban ideology from traditional and conventional methods of policy implementation to a disruptive transformation. Digital data is the pivot of the urban transformation process. Data “ has been regarded with paramount importance in the process of planning history in India. However, the Smart Cities Mission revolutionized the premise of data utilized for operations monitoring and decision-making of city administrations. Under the contemporary Urban Transformation Approach, cross-functional integration transcends beyond conventional boundaries to explore institution of new specialized establishments like Special Purpose Vehicles and Public-Private Partnerships. The report focuses on some of the key transformations happening in the urban space in India. The new approach has resulted in Foreword formulating innovative models which result in cost optimization and better monitoring of projects. Amidst all the technological transformation going on, the role of citizens, industry, NGOs and academia are also experiencing a change. The report also highlights the changing role of cities and the citizens in the policy formulation process and valuable insights about the ongoing urban transformation with data, technology and digital disruption at the core. I hope you will find this report interesting and informative. -
SS2016 Report
“There cannot be a bigger contributor than Mahatama Gandhi towards Swachh Bharat Mission. In the journey of one and a half years since the launch of the Mission, I would like to acknowledge the participation and involvement of citizens of the country - especially children, as also the positive and proactive role played by the media, in the Mission’s journey till date” Narendra Modi Prime Minister SWACHH SURVEKSHAN 3 FOREWORD M. Venkaiah Naidu, Minister of Urban Development, Housing & Urban Poverty Alleviation and Parliamentary Afairs As a mark of respect to the father of the nation, our govern- ment has taken an ambitious pledge to make India Open Defecation Free and clean by 2nd October, 2019 through the Swachh Bharat Mission. We have taken up a multi-pronged strategy for making this mission successful, and turning it into a people’s movement. In its second year since launch, it is heartening to note that the Swachh Bharat Mission has caught the imagination of cit- izens. The increased participation from citizens, be it as part of our thematic drives, or voluntary ‘swachhata’ activities from inspired individuals and organizations, is slowly but surely pushing the Mission towards becoming a ‘Jan Andolan’. The “Swachh Survekshan” was launched in January 2016 to assess the sanitation and solid waste management status in 73 major cities in India (comprising 40% of India’s total urban population) - including 53 cities with a population of above 10 lakhs each, and state capitals. This was the first survey since the launch of Swachh Bharat Mission in October 2014, and I would like to thank the Quality Council of India for carrying out this survey on behalf of my Ministry. -
