Good Morning!

Welcome to the second edition of OSA Impact Insights, a bi-weekly email briefing in which we share original insights, interviews with nonprofits on the ground, and curate only the best information to keep you informed about the realities in Odisha. It’s hard to stay updated about what’s actually happening – for that reason, we are your eyes and ears on the ground.
