Context

Poverty and Climate change pose two of the biggest threats to our world today. In the current circumstances, the poor are also the ones hardest hit by climate change- whether because of drought affecting income from agriculture or because of cyclones and floods that result in a loss of life and property. With the onset of the pandemic, the challenges of the poor have only been compounded. Recent research shows that an additional 75 million people in India have been pushed into poverty on account of the COVID-19 induced economic crisis1 . With less than a decade to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined by the UN’s Agenda 2030, there is a need to promote inclusive sectoral growth around Decentralized Renewable Energy (DRE) that can address the climate change challenges of the poor.

Scope of the Work

The scope of the work is to create customized learning and training platforms to strengthen the capacity for energy / decentralized renewable energy stakeholders. The contents and modules will be shared with the LMS developer by the SELCO Foundation. While the Skilling sector has its vision of setting up an LMS , it is constrained by a limited experience in working with an LMS. Therefore , prior to the development / customisation of an LMS, this project will need a thorough validation of our requirements and comparative analysis of various credible LMS and their features to recommend an appropriate system. Conduct an in-depth assessment / analysis and validation of our requirements with different stakeholders. This will include the study of the existing system , available digital contents and future plan of the digital resources.

Interested companies / organizations, with relevant experience (please include samples and/or references of the previous similar work as proof of experience) and based out of India are requested to reach out with a detailed proposal giving a brief on the methodology and the process they will uptake for this project, including budgets (with break-ups and explanation), timelines and milestones and send the same to https://forms.gle/b2Uh32qHTtwcKae76 on or before 15th June’23.
