Although COVID cases in India have reduced, the pandemic still continues to directly affect several vulnerable populations across rural and urban areas in the country.
Through our #BacktheFrontline campaign so far, Dasra has supported and channeled resources to 142 NGOs across 31 States & Union Territories in India, helping them accelerate their COVID relief efforts which are focused on awareness, immediate care, medical support, training and capacity building of frontline workers, mental health support, financial assistance, skilling and livelihoods.
Uniquely, many of the NGOs supported have strong women-focused leadership and truly imbibe the JEDI lens (Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion) as they work with extremely vulnerable communities who have borne the brunt of the pandemic.
