Credivera is a technology platform that provides proof of certifications and work experience. The technology collects and verifies digital credentials while using blockchain to maintain a real-time, auditable record. The solution was developed to verify workforce compliance by collecting information from various sources, validating it and delivering it to the employer. The technology supports pre-hire verification, onboarding, employee continuous certification and training management, and off-boarding that easily removes employee files and any corporate liability associated with holding an individual’s personal records.

The project will ensure that girls realize their rights to safe, quality, gender-responsive education by improving the participation of adolescent girls in primary and secondary education. It will increase the availability of gender-responsive school facilities such as latrines and access to adolescent-friendly sexual and reproductive health services. The project will address the financial constraints faced by poor girls and their families by providing economic opportunities to support girls’ education. The project will offer reentry points for out-of-school girls, with particular attention to girls in remote communities and living with disabilities. To support girls’ transition from primary to secondary school, or to alternative learning programs for girls barred from enrolling due to pregnancy or early motherhood, KAGIS will implement cost-effective solutions to enable safe transport to secondary and alternative learning centres.

April 2021 – Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases in India have grown exponentially to over 17 million, with daily cases increasing from around 10,000 at the beginning of February 2021 to more than 350,000 by the end of April. According to the WHO Health Emergency Dashboard, on April 27 alone, India officially recorded over 2,700 deaths due to COVID-19. However, excess deaths attributable to the virus were likely many times this figure. This second wave has overwhelmed health infrastructure across the country. In major cities like Mumbai and Delhi, there are severe shortages of ICU hospital beds, medical oxygen and medications to treat COVID-19. Hospitals are overcrowded and turning away patients. Hospitalization facilities, human resources capacity, bedding availability, and ambulance services are in high demand. A growing number of Indian states have implemented lockdowns.
