In this episode, we explore how digital innovation is transforming maternal and child healthcare in rural India. Dr. Santosh Bhosale shares his journey from clinician to social impact leader, driving Project Maatr, an initiative powered by Capgemini, to support frontline Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHA) workers. By digitizing manual processes, equipping workers with tools, and leveraging data and AI, the program enables real-time identification of high-risk pregnancies and more proactive care. The conversation highlights the importance of localized data, ethical AI, and human-centered design in building scalable healthcare solutions. Beyond technology, it underscores the power of empathy, community engagement, and partnerships in addressing systemic challenges. In the episode, music is not just a metaphor, it becomes a practical tool for connection and care. Dr. Santosh describes initiatives like “Art on Wheels,” where music, singing, and creative expression help children recover from post-pandemic trauma, making them more receptive and engaged after even short sessions.
