About the Organization
Swaniti Initiative is a social enterprise that is
working at the intersection of climate, governance and last mile delivery. We
believe that while the willingness and resources exist, there are fundamental
gaps in the execution within communities that is the biggest crisis in the
climate movement. Accordingly, Swaniti works with sub national governments to
conduct micro planning exercises with consultations with community and key
stakeholders to understand the pathways forward, provide technical assistance to
sub national governments to provide support in program implementation and
support in monitoring and delivery of programs.
Swaniti has been working across multiple
geographies in the global south to unlock capital. Our three core metrics
include unlocking public capital, ensuring last mile communities are directly
benefited and creating systemic changes in the public service systems. While we
are continuing to focus on impact, it is critical to have a lead who has a deep
understanding about monitoring, evaluation and learning. Our intention is to
create an institutional capability to measure and document the scale of our
impact and look at how learning can be replicated across the institution.
