Third Sector Partners, a leading CxO and board search firm in the Not for Profit sector, has been retained by Mercy Corps to hire its Executive Director, India.

Mercy Corps is seeking a bold, action-oriented, and creative leader with a passion for social entrepreneurship to be its Executive Director (ED) for Mercy Corps India (MCI).  MCI is a member of the global Mercy Corps family, but is registered as an independent Section 25 company with a separate Board of Directors.  The ED must therefore be a shrewd navigator, able to steer our country presence along a truly “local to global” axis as an independent entity, while at the same time maintaining close links to the ethos and administrative structures of the parent company, Mercy Corps.

The various possible PPP structures for the sector were studied, and their applicability assessed in the context of the selected sample cities. Consultations led to development of term sheets for these PPP structures, which were identified as most suitable and feasible for implementation.

The above exercise has led to development of this report, which may be considered as a tool kit designed to help decision makers decide whether a particular project might be suitable for the PPP route or not. The tool kit can, therefore, be the basis for approving a project implementation structure as part of the overall project approval methodology.

An online portal that provides the right aid and resources to the right people at the right time when disaster strikes.

With a belief that those who serve people in need shouldn't have to sacrifice on the tools they use, Aidmatrix Foundation came up with CDRN. It's an online portal that helps bring people together with the use of applications for supply-chain management, volunteer management and fund raising. People can enter their needs, donations, products or supplies into the CDRN system, which is in turn accessed by a nationwide network of relief agencies, corporates, state Governments, federations, and PSUs. It allows donors to provide discounted pricing offers as well as donations directly to various relief agencies by viewing needs posted on the system.
