Phase II of the Women’s Empowerment: Rural Toilet Builder and Community Sanitation Project scaled Phase I efforts to 21 states throughout India. WE: Sanitation II extended the initial phase of the program that was conducted from 2014-16. This phase focuses on researching the scalability, wider impact, and establishment of best practices for global knowledge transfer–on the topic of women’s empowerment and community-led total sanitation (CLTS). The inclusion of diverse income-generation programs was also studied, to see if greater economic empowerment would have greater sustainability. Community engagement through the establishment of SHGs, outreach programs, and inclusion into Government of India programs (especially Swachh Bharat Abhayan and Swajal) were also studied.

The major issues associated with Organic Photovoltaic (OPV) cells are photo absorption, charge separation and carrier transport. We trying to address the limitations associated with photo absorption, through the techniques, such as introduction of plasmonic layer and patterned surfaces. We are also modifying the microstructure of the active layer to understand its influence on the charge separation and carrier transport dynamics in these systems.
