Knowledge dissemination plan/tools (provide specific names or illustrative examples of individuals and institutions to be targeted by the project’s outreach/dissemination efforts)
Knowledge dissemination is an integral part of the project as the project is all about support services for capacity development and knowledge management tools for the community of stakeholders involved in remote village electrification projects. As stated earlier, knowledge dissemination would take place through the web portal through persistent web presence and content updation by the community of stakeholders in a participatory manner through secured login and authority levels for content additions and editing.
The knowledge would be disseminated through hands-on field trainings on GIS, data capture and analysis. Dissemination to AEDA / MNES officials on effective utilization of GIS in future for replication in RVEPs in other states.
The list of institutions / agencies / individuals who will be targeted by the outreach and dissemination efforts of the project during the pilot demonstration phase (for Assam RVEP) and thereafter for extending the support services at national level for RVEPs of other states and the scale up projects of GVEP partners) are given below.
