About The/Nudge
The/Nudge is an action institute working towards a poverty-free India, within our lifetime. We partner with governments, markets, and civil society to build resilient livelihoods for all. We are a collective of some of India’s best leaders and entrepreneurs from across the industry, academia, government, and development sectors.
Who are we solving for in End Ultra Poverty program?
We are solving for bottom ~6% of population in India which is tucked away and invisible to the outside world on the edges of remote villages, geographically isolated, social and financially excluded, and economically excluded. Both markets and government are unable to meaningfully support this segment.
A typical ultra poor household in India may have following indicators:
• annual household income of less than INR ~34000
• tied to unpredictable wage labour
• living on less than 2 meals a day
• ownership of little or no land or productive asset (like livestock, bicycles)
• no savings (spend 80% of income on food)
• little or no access to social entitlements
Women in ultra-poor households are especially vulnerable but are also a vehicle for change.

End Ultra Poverty (EUP) program is solving for households in ultra-poverty through a targeted, multi-faceted and sequenced model called the graduation approach which has demonstrated that ultra-poverty can be conquered.

• enable govt to adopt by providing research, design and implementation support
• continue to generate data on ultra-poverty and evidence on graduation approach to nudge governments to adopt at scale
• build technology solutions for NGOs and governments to adopt and implement at scale & with quality.
What are some of the principles/approaches we use to solve problems?
• First principles thinking
• Human-centered design (thoughtful, action-oriented, experimental & iterative process) with a gender lens (unbiased and reflective approach)
• Systems thinking (analytical, stakeholder-oriented and holistic)Strategic planning (result oriented, logical and coherent with clearly defined outcomes, grounded on the current realities)
What will you do in this role?

• on the nature of and definition of ultra-poverty in multiple contexts of India
• on the outcomes of the graduation approach and its variations with internal and external partners
• on the beneficiary and socio-economic conditions in multiple geographies

• for improving the tracking of program progress
• Product Design:
