Local Interventions Group

In our flagship initiative Follow the Money, we have not followed the herd – blaming the government and relief agencies. Accountability initiatives need not always be critical of the government. We believe in collaborating rather than confronting – after all development interventions should be mostly about enhancing government capacity to deliver. See how we are ensuring disaster accountability in worst affected districts of Gorkha and Sindhupalchok, together with American Jewish World Service - AJWS http://ftm.localinterventions.co/ .

Global Partnership for Sustainable Development Data - an unprecedented, multi-stakeholder network working to harness the data revolution for sustainable development, has recognised us as a CHAMPION for our relentless efforts in ensuring data driven works. This pushes us even more, and validates why data, evidence and civic tools should be at the heart of policy and practice. Super proud to stand together with global stalwarts like CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Participation , McKinsey & Company , Facebook , Mastercard, IBM, World Bank, OECD, and UK government among others.

HOME Our 150+ partners are joining forces to galvanize political commitment, align strategic priorities, foster collaboration, spur innovation and build trust in the booming data ecosystems of the 21st century.

Local Interventions Group has launched a mobile app 'Hamro Police' for Metropolitan Police Kathmandu, with technology, talent and resource support from Islington College, a pioneering business and IT College in Kathmandu, and Third Pole Connects Pvt Ltd, a tech start-up with rigour and verve.

Hamro Police smart phone app enables members of the public within Kathmandu Valley to swiftly report GIS coded and time-stamped incidents of crime and report with pictorial and documentary evidence enabling Nepal Police to respond to reports swiftly and efficiently. Current functionalities include reporting incidents; locating nearest police stations; lodging complaints and thanking honest and committed police officers for their service. More features will be added in the near future, and scaling strategy includes improving access to justice for citizens, especially women and vulnerable communities throughout Nepal.

Hamro Police app was launched during a press conference at Metropolitan Police Kathmandu on Sunday 05, July 2015 by Metro Commissioner Bigyan Raj Sharma.
