Leveraging Technology for Social Good
TCS’ impact reaches the farthest corners of India. Prioritising the most fundamental needs of the underrepresented and underserved communities, TCS collaborates with government and non-governmental organizations to give wings to millions of dreams.
TCS is using AI-powered tools to help reduce school dropout rates with clean toilets at public schools. Around 1,400 women entrepreneurs from socially marginalized backgrounds are being empowered through the Bridge IT program. From providing literacy to upskilling marginalised communities, TCS is making headway in strengthening India’s backbone.
1.Using AI to ensure better sanitation
One Clean Toilet at a Time
Globally, 10% of diseases are linked to inadequate sanitation, causing an annual economic loss of $260 billion. In India, poor sanitation contributes to 23% of girls dropping out of school, undermining the Swachh Bharat Mission.
Recognizing this problem, TCS worked with the state of Andhra Pradesh to improve sanitation standards in 45,000 government-run schools statewide. TCS’ automated solution processes photographs of sanitation components such as commodes, urinals, and wash basins to determine their condition and alert the sanitation staff, processing up to five lakh images daily. The solution achieves an accuracy of about 95% and integrates fraud detection, adhering to ethical AI principles.
