Thinking with AI #19

This podcast advocates for small-scale improvements to India's infrastructure, arguing that these incremental changes offer significant advantages over large-scale projects. A SWOT analysis highlights the cost-effectiveness, immediate impact, and community engagement benefits of smaller projects, while acknowledging limitations in scope and resource constraints. Successful examples from India (PMGSY, Jal Jeevan Mission, Swachh Bharat Mission) and globally (CLTS, small hydropower, urban green spaces) are presented to illustrate the positive impacts achievable. The conclusion emphasises that a focus on these smaller projects can create a more inclusive and sustainable infrastructure system.
