We work with women, farmers, tribals, and youth across rural development, agriculture, skilling, and economic inclusion, in partnership with 15+ central and state governments.\nOur economic inclusion journey towards serving 25 million Indians spans 10 states and currently reaches over 1.5 million people. Through our incubator, accelerator, and grand challenges, we have supported 200+ social entrepreneurs, including Forbes 30 Under 30 honorees, Earthshot Prize winners, and nationally recognized changemakers.\nFounded with the support of 130+ eminent philanthropists, 40+ corporates, and 15+ foundations, The/Nudge is working towards a poverty-free India, within our lifetime.\nAbout the Insight Program :\nWho are we solving for?\nWe are solving for millions of adults in India, especially in rural communities, living with uncorrected presbyopia, a near-vision impairment affecting 1 in 3 people over 30. Without timely access to simple solutions like reading glasses, they face barriers to work and income, despite evidence showing such interventions can boost productivity by 34% and income by 20%.\nWhat are we solving for?\nMillions in India experience uncorrected presbyopia, a near-vision impairment affecting one in three people over 30, with cases now appearing as early as 35. Globally, presbyopia is the most common cause of vision impairment, impacting over 800 million people. In India alone, 300 million people live with this condition, contributing to $14 billion in lost productivity each year.\nFor many, especially in rural communities, clear near vision is essential for work and daily activities. Without access to timely solutions, individuals may face challenges in earning a livelihood. However, studies from Assam and Bangladesh show that a simple intervention - reading glasses - can increase productivity by 34% and boost income by 20%.\nDespite the clear benefits, several factors have made it difficult for people to access reading glasses at scale.\nWith only one trained optometrist per 180,000 people, access to professional eye care remains a challenge in many areas.\nMany individuals aren’t aware that their near-vision difficulties can be easily corrected, and some hesitate to wear glasses due to social and cultural perceptions.\nBringing reading glasses to remote and rural areas requires innovative and community-driven approaches to ensure affordability and reach.\nThroughthe InSight Program, The/Nudge Institute is collaborating with central and state governments to make India presbyopia-free using a community-led model.\nWhat will you do?\nAbout the role :\nThe Senior Associate - Operations will be responsible for managing and strengthening the operational functions of the InSight Program.
