About Us

 

CLARE

CLARE is one of its kind industry-academia collaboration between CHRIST (Deemed to be University) and LabourNet to produce knowledge about the informal economy and the labour markets in India.

CLARE aims at advancing practice-oriented research directed towards LabourNet’s vision of training 10 lakh people by 2022. It operates beyond the scope of disciplinary boundaries of business, economics or sociology, thus finding a perfect place to fit in our interdisciplinary campus.

 

What We Do!

CLARE is involved in a varied spectrum of research within the informal economy, including:

  • Monitoring, surveying and analysing the labour market conditions of various sectors in the economy in order to identify skill gaps for potential training programs that could act as a bridge.
  • Impact evaluation of the completed and ongoing skill training programs undertaken by LabourNet.
  • Building case studies from the experience of LabourNet to disseminate the knowledge of what has worked and what hasn’t in the market for skill training.
  • Identifying potential opportunities and thereby preparing CSR proposals for LabourNet.
  • Building a repository of district-level data on the labour market conditions of various sectors from the programs undertaken by LabourNet.
  • Conducting tracer studies and contributing to policy papers.
