No Magic Pill | DPW 2026 Virtual Session

​About Dasra Philanthropy Week 2026, Mumbai:

​As India advances toward its Viksit Bharat 2047 vision, progress will be shaped by how deeply the country listens to its communities and how intentionally philanthropy amplifies them. India for the World, World for India reflects this belief: that solutions grounded in lived experience and civil society leadership can accelerate India’s development and inspire beyond its borders. Dasra Philanthropy Week builds on this momentum by convening changemakers to elevate community insights, address systemic barriers, and drive collective action toward a more inclusive and future-ready India.

​About The Session | No Magic Pill

​As understanding of the links between climate change and health in India grows, this critical intersection remains underexplored in philanthropic investment. This session brings forth key insights from Dasra’s report, Under the Weather: India’s Climate-Health Intersections and Pathways to Resilience, making the case for integrating a climate lens into health system responses to build both short- and long-term community resilience. Through dialogue with public health practitioners and philanthropy, the session explores how this evidence can be translated to guide investments, inform programmatic decisions, and strengthen health system preparedness. It also highlights the catalytic role of philanthropy in scaling proven interventions, fostering cross-sector collaboration, and directing resources toward underserved priorities - ensuring that health becomes a central focus of India’s climate action.
