Google.org invests in two, to us, interesting projects; "improve public debate on urban planning" and "improve local planning in India" (FYI, Neeraj et al)
Centre for Policy Research (CPR): $600,000 multi-year grant to increase the debate and discourse on issues of urban local governance and urban service delivery in light of the rapid expansion of cities in India
Center for Budget and Policy Studies (CBPS): $765,000 multi-year grant to create a Budget Information Service for local governments in India, with the goal of facilitating better district and municipal-level planning
