Emerging Technology Intervention Model of Core Support …

institutional arrangement as evidently seen in all the cases has shown potential for
large scale dissemination with policy level decision for customization to promote
individual and group enterprises. This will ultimately contribute to the recent initiatives of carbon neutrality and in conservation of natural resources with reduced
extraction of fuel wood from forests and natural habitats, which is a priority at the
local as well as at the national and international level. Besides, quality leadership
and in-house technical capabilities and strength to work with the community through
strong social engineering component by core team (s) deployed under Core Support
Model of DST have been found major factors in effective delivery and adoption of
such need based technological solutions.
3.2 Strategizing Innovative Systems and Technology
Deployment
Other factors, which were found responsible in strategizing innovative systems and
to evolve workable technology products/packages for rural transformation by these
CSGs, are:
• Innovations that accelerate new economic opportunities and enhance incomes
i.e. technology solutions that.
– Provide local entrepreneurship and employment (LED Lanterns, paper recycling—by VA, SEED & DA)
– Add value to local resources (Solar dried products—by SEED)
– Enhancing productivity while yielding high economic returns
– Providing new generation of services (Clean energy services and paper recycling—for domestic use and enterprise creation—by TIDE, VA, DA, NBIRT)
• Need based intervention in challenging areas: 3A (Appropriate, Affordable and
Accessible) technological solutions and systems management.
• Pro-active approach addressing location specific issues.
• Strong networking at field level: S&T based Core Support Groups-Institution
partnership + interface with R&D institutions to address critical issues for
vulnerable sections and informal sector.
• Strong social engineering component to produce large level and wide effects
in rural settings—Hand holding and skill development—Community owned and
Community Operated model.
• Involve Panchayati Raj Institution (PRI) and local governments in scaling up with
local institutional arrangements.
• Catalyze and promote collaborative linkages—Scaling up at local, regional and
national level.
• Evolving replicable models of different scale for rural resource management
(natural as well as human capital), and economic growth to enhance the local
livelihoods and address vulnerability and developmental issues.
