Policy to Programs

CFAM, Council for Active Mobility

State tracker: 1 state notified, 35 yet to act
Karnataka Bill: 2.5 m minimum footpaths in school zones, 1.5 m cyclist overtaking distance
Ecosystem of partner organisations across seven work tracks, with the Altmo app for participation

Nine data stories

Data-driven investigations into forests, farmers, livelihoods and rights

Commons, EmergenceInfluence the Rule, Not the BirdHow to use emergence to steer action in the commons. Birds in formation follow a few simple rules, and the formation is what emerges. Money and effort mostly add speed; only the rules change direction.Business, BiodiversityThe Question They Made Optional786 of India's biggest listed companies operate beside a forest, wetland or coast. Just 33 said what they actually do there. The question was optional, so the rest broke no rule.Soil, AgricultureThe Best-Measured Soil in the WorldIndia tests its farmland more thoroughly than any country on Earth: over 5 million samples, 12 readings each. More than half comes back low on carbon, and there is no second opinion to check the readings against.Biodiversity, GovernanceThe Register No One ReadsIndia built 2.72 lakh People's Biodiversity Registers to put villages in charge of the nature around them. Two have been formally approved.Rural India, SustainabilityThe Ground Beneath the Report CardIndia grades 2.6 lakh villages on how they're doing today, not whether they can last. Its showcase grain belt is also the fastest at draining its own water.Wildlife, Human ConflictThe UncountedIndia logs over 100,000 human-wildlife conflict incidents a year across 88 species, yet keeps a national death count for just two.Forests, CFR RightsWhose Forest Is It?India mapped 3.46 crore hectares of community forest that local communities could govern. Less than 3% has been recognised.Agriculture, FPOsThe Hollow CollectiveIndia helped small farmers form nearly 50,000 companies they own together. Just 4% employ even one paid manager.Livelihoods, Women, SHGsThe Ground They Stand OnIndia's self-help groups are the world's largest financial-inclusion effort: 9 crore women across 8.6 million groups. Yet even the best-served state leaves 71% stuck at saving, never reaching credit.
