ChildFund India
1. About ChildFund India
ChildFund India, registered in 1984, is a child development organization working with children, youth, and families in some of the most marginalized, remote, and hard-to-reach communities in India. Guided by the vision of creating “an India where children lead a dignified life and achieve their full potential,” ChildFund implements integrated programs from conception to early adulthood focusing on health, nutrition, sanitation, early childhood development, adolescent development, gender equality, child protection, and humanitarian response.
ChildFund reaches 4.5 million children, youth, and families annually through strong grassroots partnerships, deep community presence, and close collaboration with government systems, driving sustainable and inclusive development outcomes.
2. Background
Under the current Country Strategy Program (CSP) 2022–2026, ChildFund India has significantly strengthened and diversified its health domain, covering:
- Maternal, newborn, and child health
- Nutrition and stunting reduction
- Adolescent reproductive and sexual health
- Mental health and psychosocial support
- Digital health models
- School and community WASH
- Health system strengthening
The organization has implemented several innovations, such as digital adolescent platforms, teleconsultation services, mental health screening tools at the community level.
At this juncture in the CSP cycle, there is an organizational need to:
- Document where the health portfolio started,
- Reflect on progress, achievements, and innovations, and
- Strategically identify future directions, donor alignment, and readiness, including emerging technologies and sector innovations.
This learning exercise focuses exclusively on the Health Domain, with field validation in 1–2 program locations, ensuring diverse representation of ChildFund’ s health interventions.
The consultant/agency will review:
- CSP 2022–2026
- CSP Mid-Term Review
- Innovation and digital health pilots
- Relevant external research and donor priority documents
