Who We Are

PCI India, has been working in India since 1998. We drive interventions to transform the lives of communities at scale by solving complex social issues – partnering with governments, private sectors, and development organizations. Our decades of deep community connection has equipped us to discover the root causes of social and developmental challenges faced by the communities, including the marginalized ones. Through our evidence-based programming and sophisticated measurements, we design solutions that are efficacious and scalable. We are recognized for providing high-quality technical assistance to both national and state governments. We are supported by a multidisciplinary, passionate, and competent team committed to translating our dreams into realities.

Our Core Values

Excellence

Quality in everything, no matter how small, is paramount.
We believe in striving to be the best we can be through the optimization of everyone’s full potential. We believe in applying what we learn for maximum efficiency and impact. We believe in going beyond what is average or mediocre and we strive to set and achieve the highest possible standards of performance.

Boldness

Boldness requires disruptive thinking backed up by courage and conviction.
We believe in challenging the status quo and taking risks. We believe in experimenting, failing fast and learning well. We believe in reflection driven by curiosity and a willingness to question how things are done and to speak up without fear of judgement.

Collaboration

Only through collaboration can resources be leveraged for addressing complex problems.
We believe that the complex socio-ecological environment within which we operate requires convergence and intersectionality. We believe in the power of partnership with all stakeholders, particularly communities and government. We believe that strengths can be harnessed, weaknesses minimized, and synergistic results achieved through networking, convening, and working between and across teams.

Integrity

Integrity is non-negotiable in both personal and professional domains.
We value honesty and transparency in all interactions and in the delivery and documentation of results. We are ethical and upright, demonstrating our inner beliefs and commitments through our actions. We stand firm in our commitments and hold ourselves fully accountable in all we do.

Creativity

Creativity ensures dynamic responsiveness, relevance, and impact.
We believe in using our imagination and innovative, out-of-the box thinking to improve efficiency, effectiveness, and solution generation. We believe in adaptation and quick learning, and we constantly seek to find new and better ways of thinking and doing. We believe that creativity leads to optimum utilization of available resources for maximum results at scale.

Respect

There is inherent value in all people for who they are and what they can contribute. 
We believe in the power of diversity in all its manifestations, and in the need to be respectful and non-judgmental in all interactions. We respect local context and the complexity of the ecosystem in which we work. We respect the wisdom and power that inherently exists within our own staff and within the communities we serve.
