Foundation for Economic Development (FED) is a Delhi-based non-profit driving sustained, broad-based economic growth of over 10% in India. Evidence shows that high growth is the best tool to reduce poverty—post-1991 reforms cut poverty from ~50% to ~20%, lifting 350 million people out of abject poverty. However, sustaining fast growth has become challenging, making structural reforms critical. FED identifies high-impact sectors and collaborates with policymakers to unlock growth.

Our Focus

Our Approach

FED drives impact through:

• Research & Strategy – Data-backed policy recommendations through sector deep dives and stakeholder engagement.
• Communication & Outreach – Advocacy via op-eds, social media, and policymaker engagement.
• Implementation Support – Partnering with state governments like UP, Telangana, and Tamil Nadu to drive reforms.
