Integrating data across multiple formats for longitudinal analysis and digitizing processes for community workers

SDGs Impacted

Forbes Marshall has been implementing the Girl’s Scholarship Program since 2017 to empower girls in villages of Pune district in western part of India. The program caters to girls who face barriers to education due to low income, living in underserved or remote locations, or belonging to a socially or culturally disadvantaged section of society. Since December 2020, the program has been scaled in the entire ‘Khed’ block of Pune district in partnership with other donor organizations and a field implementation organization – Youth Organization for Joining, Action & Knowledge (YOJAK). The program uses a Digital Public Good (DPG) call Aam Digital, a cloud-based & easy-to-use software where recurring interactions with beneficiaries are documented. YOJAK is a registered NGO working passionately to bring positive change in human & environmental well-being.

Impact / Outcome
The Aam Digital case management system is now being used by the tais to report on daily program tasks and also to update data of the girls through the program tasks. This will enable the program team and the field staff to ensure that vulnerable girls at risk of dropping out from the education system are supported rigorously to avoid drop out.
