A brief description of ARMMAN’s projects and their use of technology to impact lives: ARMMAN’s projects include: 1. mMitra (urban) & Phone Sakhi (rural) mMitra (urban) & Phone Sakhi (rural) are weekly automated voice call services that send timed and targeted preventive health care information to the phones of the enrolled pregnant women and the mothers of infants through pregnancy and infancy. The free weekly/twice a week voice calls are specific to the gestational age or age of the infant and are in their chosen language and time slot. Phone Sakhi in rural India also includes one minute animations on important topics of maternal and infant care, coded onto the mobile phones of village health workers so as to reinforce the information given through voice calls. mMitra service aims to reach 5 million urban poor women across India in ten years. We already have more than 170,000 subscribers to the service in Mumbai, Nasik and areas around Mumbai through partnership with Government Hospitals and NGOs. We will begin implementation in Delhi, Bhopal, Indore, Pune and Nagpur in the next three months. At the moment Phone Sakhi caters to women in 250 villages in rural Maharashtra and pockets of rural Karnataka. Implementation will begin in Vashind, Nandgaon, Ratnagiri, Tarapur and Alibaug districts of Maharashtra in the next few months. 2. Arogya Sakhi Home based Antenatal and Infancy Care Arogya Sakhi Home based Antenatal and Infancy Care trains women from the community to become health entrepreneurs providing home-based antenatal and infancy care including performing diagnostic and treatment interventions for a nominal fee. The Sakhis are proficient in performing diagnostic tests including Hb, blood sugar, urine, blood pressure, fetal doppler, anthropometric measurements etc and are given a medical kit with the required equipment to provide home-based care. This project has created 166 social women entrepreneurs who provide affordable health care to their village and in the process become financially independent to provide for their own families. They are supported by a mobile app that guides them through the care process, helps identify high risk signs and symptoms and gives alerts regarding the need for referral. The project has been implemented in 250 villages in Solapur, Washim and Osmanabad districts in rural Maharashtra as a part of a randomized cluster trial funded by DFID UK that also includes Phone Sakhi. In the midline survey conducted at the end of pregnancy, there was more than 75% increase in referrals for high risk factors in the study group that received the home based care. 3. Mother and Child High Risk Factor Tracking with SMS Alert System Mother and Child high risk factor tracking with SMS Alert system is a comprehensive mobile based tool that supports the work of the Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANM) and ensures that mothers and children with high risk factors are picked up early and referred in time. It is designed to collate information of all pregnant women and children and use it to track high risk factors and ensure closure of loop in the care provided. The ANMs (auxiliary nurse midwives) will be provided with android based mobile phones with an App that has encoded antenatal, postnatal, infancy and childhood forms. These forms will take the ANM through the signs and symptoms to be noted, diagnostic investigations to be performed and alert them regarding the high risk factor present, treatment to be given and the need for referral. The real time data will be sent through the backend to the primary health centre and district officials to track the care provided. SMS alerts will be sent to the Medical Officer at the Primary Health Centre, ANMs, ASHAs and a family member to ensure that the women and children with high risk factors as well as those who have delayed accessing care, can be identified and provided care in time. This project is being implemented in Nandurbar district of rural Maharashtra. 4. Project HERO Hero (Helpline for Emergency Response Operations) aims to provide real-time information on the availability of ICU beds and blood of the required type in the hospitals and blood banks of Mumbai city through a Helpline, Website, SMS and Mobile App. If there is a change in the availability of beds and/or blood in the first hour after query, an instantaneous SMS will be sent to the caller providing information about the changed status. During personal medical emergencies and mass disasters, precious minutes can be lost running from hospital to hospital trying to find an ICU bed of the required type or blood of the required group, minutes that could mean the difference between life and death! Thus HERO will also form an important component of the disaster management preparedness in the country.

Tain temple and deity is Lord Shiva, who is also known as Gokarna, India 2 Mahabhaleshwara. This temple houses what is believed to be original image of Lord Shiva's lingam. There are many other temples all over this small town. Ankola and Kumta on Highway 17 are the main towns near Gokarna. Gokarna is historically known as one of the seven important Hindu pilgrimage centers and is located on what was once unspoiled beach near the estuary of river Aghanashini with its palm trees, other colorful tropical fruit and flower trees. Of late due to the numbers of tourists the character of this town has changed. This town is no longer just a center of pilgrimage though massive numbers of devotees still visit the town for the purposes of offering prayers and worship to Lord Shiva. Due to its laid back unspoiled and rustic nature, many younger western tourists started visiting Gokarna about a decade ago.

It is known by many names: market-based solutions to poverty, inclusive businesses, impact enterprises, social enterprises, or enterprises serving the Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP). Many are giving poor households access to beneficial goods and services, by bringing safe drinking water to slums, powering villages in deep rural areas, delivering high-quality but low-cost surgical procedures, or boosting educational attainment at affordable prices. Others are enhancing the livelihoods of the poor by raising the earnings of smallholder farmers, or giving more consistent and better-paid work to rural artisans. Meanwhile, impact investors, foundations, aid donors, and increasingly, governments are banking on these businesses to grow and flourish, and generate both financial returns and social impact on a large scale.

  • Uttara Kannada District, Karnataka
    GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF WATER RESOURCES CENTRAL GROUND WATER BOARD GROUND WATER INFORMATION BOOKLET UTTARA KANNADA DISTRICT, KARNATAKA SOUTH WESTERN REGION BANGALORE NOVEMBER 2008 1 FOREWORD Ground water contributes to about eighty percent of the drinking water requirements in the rural areas, fifty percent of the urban water requirements and more than fifty percent of the irrigation requirements of the nation. Central Ground Water Board has decided to bring out district level ground water information booklets highlighting the ground water scenario, its resource potential, quality aspects, recharge – discharge relationship, etc., for all the districts of the country. As part of this, Central Ground Water Board, South Western Region, Bangalore, is preparing such booklets for all the 27 districts of Karnataka state, of which six of the districts fall under farmers’ distress category. The Uttara Kannda district Ground Water Information Booklet has been prepared based on the information available and data collected from various state and central government organisations by several hydro-scientists of Central Ground Water Board with utmost care and dedication. This booklet has been prepared by Shri G.S.Deshpande , Scientist-B and Shri B.K.Kallapur, Scientist-D under the guidance of Dr. K. Md. Najeeb, Superintending Hydrogeologist, Central Ground Water Board, South Western Region, Bangalore. The figures were prepared by S/Sri.

Preface Huge investments are being committed in new infrastructure projects in developing countries. Infrastructuresare long-life assets and are designed to withstand normal variability in climate regime. The Konkan Railway Corporation Limited (KRCL), a railway line operating for the past decade on the western coast of India, has met with two major accidents since its inception due to bad weather conditions. This case study presents the uncertainties and risks that such infrastructure assets face due to the changing climate, and suggests possible adaptation strategies. A framework for assessing the likely climate change impacts on long-life assets, using a methodology of reverse matrix for climate change impact analysis, is also suggested. The framework links climate change variables – temperature, rainfall, sea level rise, extreme events, and other secondary variables – and sustainable development variables – technology, institutions, economic, and other policies.
