SROI- Five Steps to Intervention Planning In TVM

StabilizeTo resolve high social

impact problems

StructureBuild capacity; infrastructure that enable capabilites

TransformTo create Livelihood Improvements and enable Financial Inclusion

TVM is all about Interventions. Identifying, Planning, Executing and Measuring.While each village is unique; interventions are common because of the shared history of problemsAt KGVK we learn as we implement; Our customers are being trained to identify, plan, execute and measure

SROI – Families of Interventions (Examples only – more detail exists)

Drinking Water Smokeless Chullah Seasonal Health

Diseases

Village Level Entreprenurs Vocation driven jobs Dairy development Livestock rearing Eligible for Financial

Inclusion

StabilizeUnless Health and domestic environment is stable; transformation cannot take place. Investments are required; outcomes are non financial

StructureVolume and Value metrics indicate capbailities. Market linkages enable transformation

TransformationBeneficiaries become producers, entreprenurs and customers. Measure increases in income; acceptability for financial inclusion

Major FindingsIndependent study of the 2014 Project Re-evaluate the Impact Measurement & Management System

Key Research QuestionEvidence that either supports or refutes the hypothesis that SRI interventions work best when integrated with social development interventions

Value PropositionTo be a total resource for Knowledge, Solutions /Services, Training, Network Linkage

Customer SegmentsServe diverse segments having similar needs

PartnershipsMultiple partnering relationships between academia, corporates, professionals, funders

SRI is all about Interventions. Identifying, Planning, Executing and Measuring. Techniques, practices, training, seeds and tools are portable across geographies and national boundaries Currently significant gaps exist in harmonizing SRI practices world wide – global mapping projects across multiple SRI

attributes would create more knowledge and gains in output and outcomes UMU is ideally situated in a major rice belt of India. Its unmatched permanent field access to villages where SRI is being

introduced and practiced lends itself to research and perfecting SRI practices
