The overseas Indian population has formed a range of migrant organizations, whose activities include mobilizing resources and connections and engaging with numerous development initiatives in India. This text looks into Indian local and transnational migrant organizations and studies their engagement in the healthcare and education sectors in India. The focus of this work lies at the intersection of three key areas of concern: migrant organizations, engagement, and development. The volume discusses how these organizations have evolved, the kind of healthcare and educational projects and activities that are being carried out by them, and how such collective efforts are effecting change in the Indian healthcare and education sectors
