We call them 'hybrid' ventures…

They use ways of working from across the public, private and third sector

They flourish by making unlikely combinations such as between care and fashion, energy and food, workspace and cinema.

These combinations make sense locally, driven by people’s creativity, energy and drive

USHA MARTIN UNIVERSITY

“We must make education relevant for the many” Prashant Jhawar, Chancellor Usha Martin University

THE NATIONAL CONTEXT

572 million (2008)

600 million (2012)

Highest number of 0-24 year age group in the world

>

Number of degree granting universities more than double, primarily due to deemed-universities and private universities.

THE NATIONAL CONTEXT

256 UNIVERSITIES

(2000)

564 UNIVERSITIES

(2011)

>

India added nearly 20,000 colleges in a decade, from 12,806 in 2000-01 to 33,023 in 2010-11.

Source : McKinsey Quarterly

India is likely to have too few workers with secondary education and not enough job opportunities for low skills workers. !India is projected to triple college graduates in its labor force by 2030 and nearly double secondary school graduates. !Beyond the challenge of educating the young, India has 285 million adult workers who have no secondary education. Of these, 150 million have not even completed primary education. Providing job-relevant vocational skills to these workers is a unique challenge that India faces.

THE NATIONAL CONTEXT

Jharkhand

The combination of a political legacy, Jharkhand’s resource curse and under investment has created the conditions of great need and untapped human capital resources..
