Fighting Poverty using Innovative Technology
The Action Research in Community Health and Development (ARCH) has partnered with the Regional Office of the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom South Asia in empowering marginalized farmers with property rights titles, especially women, by using IT-based methodology to improve their livelihood. Indians living in rural and forest areas have suffered historic alienation because they were denied their traditional right to property and livelihood. These communities have consequently lived in the most impoverished conditions, with poor infrastructure and less access to health care.
