Research is a powerful tool for driving informed decision-making and improving the effectiveness of development programs. At FHLE, we recognize the importance of research in contributing to the vision of Viksit Bharat by 2047. A Viksit Bharat is driven by innovation, evidence-based solutions, and an understanding of the unique challenges faced by diverse communities across the country. FHLE’s research focuses on gathering data, evaluating programs, and identifying solutions that can be scaled across regions to address key issues in health, education, livelihoods, and empowerment.

We conduct studies on health outcomes, educational attainment, livelihood strategies, and the social and economic impact of our programs. Our research also includes partnerships with academic institutions, government agencies, and other nonprofits to develop policies and solutions for India’s development challenges. By contributing to the knowledge base, we play a role in shaping policies that align with the goal of a Viksit Bharat, where research-driven policies and solutions enhance the lives of millions across the country.
