Resources

India’s social sector works in an environment where the magnitude of need and scarcity of resources creates a crucible of innovation that can produce insights for the world. In light of this, the second annual issue of Impact India examines how successful Indian nonprofits have become masters at scaling up.

There might be no better lab than India for studying the challenges that nonprofits face in trying to grow while stretched for resources. This issue describes how leaders manage the tension between scale and scarcity by studying 20 fast-growing, broad-reaching Indian nonprofits, and highlights five distinct ways that their leaders think and act that help them reach hundreds of thousands, even millions, of people in need.
