Basic Paradigm Private Limited

Basic Paradigm is a social enterprise that undertakes projects, ventures, and activities to benefit groups of people beyond those directly involved in doing the business. Established by a group of professionals associated with the social development sector, Basic Paradigm focuses on improving health, nutrition, and welfare of all as the last mile and works towards attainment of Sustainable Development Goal 3 i.e., ensuring health and well-being, at every stage of life. While Basic Paradigm operates as a social enterprise, it is also the for-profit and supporting arm of the not-for-profit organization SCHOOL (Society of Community Health Oriented Operational Links), which was established in 2007 and is governed by same set of boards of directors. Along with a capable and expert team of professionals and volunteers, both Basic Paradigm and SCHOOL, build on decades of field experiences, to ensure better ways of addressing various development challenges. The two organizations together bring in diverse expertise, and lessons learned that guide varied projects in planning, designing, implementing, monitoring, and measuring results. In doing so, the two organizations focus on dissimilar tasks- with Basic Paradigm focusing on partnering with and assisting organizations in arriving at strategic solutions to real-world problems, implementing new ideas and innovative approaches, and ensuring cost-effectiveness and sustainability. Whereas SCHOOL implements field initiatives that ensure last mile connectivity for the vulnerable populations in the country, with specific focus on adolescents and the elderly, so as to address all the social determinants of health and well-being.
