FIRST WE LISTENEDWe heard more than 900 ideas on great policies from experts and stakeholders across Rajasthan.
THEN, WE RESEARCHEDWe asked leading Indian and international economists to examine the most promising solutions.
FINALLY, WE SCRUTINISED AND COMPARED THE BENEFITS AND COSTSApplying limited resources to unlimited needs means prioritising. At our 2018 conference in Jaipur, we asked an Eminent Panel of economists to analyse the proposals and identify the smartest investments for Rajasthan.
THE END RESULT: TAILWIND TO GREAT IDEAS AND HEADWIND FOR POORER ONESShifitng just 1% of Rajasthan spending towards great ideas could generate benefits worth ₹50,000 crores annually.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PROJECTMore than 800 people from government, NGOs, academia, thinktanks, and business identified 79 of the most promising solutions for Rajasthan.24 teams of Indian and international economists have re-searched the costs and benefits of each. These analyses have been presented and discussed at semi-nars and in the media across the state and the country.An Eminent Panel vetted the 1,000+ pages of new research in detail, questioning the academics at a 3-day conference in Jai-pur to identify some of the smartest ways to help.

All benefit‐cost ratios are comparable. If you spend on promoting improved cookstoves, the social,economic and environmental benefits are 7 times the cost. Each rupee spent on expanded cropinsurance coverage will do 1.4 rupees of social and economic good.
In principle, all benefits are included. The benefits of providing family planning is not only avoided childand maternal deaths, but also increased economic growth from the demographic dividend.
