NPOs must learn to capture and convey their impact in a reporting framework which is rapidly going digital. Digital literacy is now required for regulatory and compliance purposes. Empowering the NPOs digitally would mean that they will be able to harness technology to find innovative solutions for their everyday work; be it agriculture, livelihoods restoration, gender empowerment, climate change adaptation or any other stream of work they are doing. For Rise Against Hunger India, this is an important area of its work and we have entered into a partnership with a technology start-up Sync Energy to enhance technology for food security.”
