"]} Samhita s Climate work helps deploy blended financing, market access and capacity building solutions to improve climate resilience of vulnerable communities
We have a clear focus on improving incomes and building climate resilience and hence a keen eye for those who can see the bigger picture
India s agriculture is facing unprecedented challenges emerging from climate change but it also offers incredible opportunities for growth through the ongoing technology led revolution across value chains
Our own work on blended financing instruments in the climate space has seen significant success, while our partnerships with lenders, marketing agencies and AgTech players demonstrate that a new normal is possible
We are looking for someone who is committed to solving Indian agriculture s challenges, leveraging these opportunities and is looking to break out of traditional hierarchies, with a bias for action

Through our initiatives, which are CSR and FCRA compliant, we address key Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 1 (No Poverty), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals)
We began as a CSR consultancy to ensure that companies create catalytic change by leveraging their business capabilities to solve social issues that they and their stakeholders care about
We then transitioned into a strategic alliance builder, bringing together public, private, and philanthropic stakeholders to solve pressing societal challenges, at scale
We established and managed 5 alliances which are collectively impacting 7 million individuals from underserved communities, across financial inclusion, healthcare, livelihood, water and sanitation
