ECHO India is a non-profit trust that was founded in 2008 with a mission to promote equity in healthcare and education. The organization achieves this goal by providing capacity building programs for healthcare professionals and educators. ECHO India's innovative 'Hub and Spoke' Model of learning involves a team of experts serving as the hub, mentoring and training the spokes, who are a cohort of learners This approach is facilitated through a cutting edge digital infrastructure that enables scalable and sustainable capacity building in a cost-effective manner. ECHO India aims to impact the lives of 400 million people in India by the end of 2025. To achieve this goal, in collaboration with our partners, we have launched over 400 hubs and implemented 1000 capacity-building programs that cover more than 30 disease areas. These programs have witnessed over a million attendances from healthcare workers and educators across the country, with remarkable results. The ECHO Model's 'All Teach All Learn' framework has been proven effective and has been validated by over 500 peer-reviewed articles published in renowned national and international journals, such as The New England Journal of Medicine and The Lancet. ECHO India has joined forces with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) and 29 state National Health Missions (NHMs), municipal corporations, nursing councils, and esteemed medical institutions across India. Some of our leading institutional partners include AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences), NIMHANS (National Institute of Mental Health & Neurological Sciences), NITRD (National Institute for Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases), NICPR (National Institute of Cancer Prevention & Research), Tata Memorial Hospital, and PGIMER (Post Graduate Institute for Medical Education & Research). By collaborating with these entities, ECHO India is making significant strides towards strengthening the country's healthcare system.

Through continuous tele-mentoring, ECHO HIV/AIDS Clinics, implemented with the National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO), State AIDS Control Societies (SACS), and the National Institute of Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases (NITRD), have supported healthcare and community providers nationwide.

This approach goes beyond clinical knowledge, strengthening provider confidence, communication, and continuity of care across Antiretroviral Therapy Centres (ARTCs), Integrated Counselling and Testing Centres (ICTCs), and Designated STI/RTI Clinics (DSRCs).

As India advances toward its national HIV and elimination goals, ECHO India remains committed to strengthening frontline capacity and supporting providers translating policy into practice.

ECHO Indiaโ€™s capacity-building efforts align closely with the global 95-95-95 targets, supporting the Government of Indiaโ€™s ongoing journey toward ending HIV as a public health threat by 2030. A critical part of this effort is the prevention of vertical transmission. Through focused sessions, we have supported healthcare providers to implement the EVTHS 2024 guidelines to strengthen maternal screening and follow-up & prevent transmission of HIV and syphilis from mother to child.

By translating national goals into everyday clinical practice, weโ€™re helping ensure better care and healthier outcomes for mothers and newborns, where it matters most.

The early years shape everything and sometimes, they transform the people who guide them too.

Through ECHO Indiaโ€™s Early Childhood Education sessions, Sahayikas in Kolkata Municipal Corporation schools are learning that the smallest moments matter most. A little hand reaching out, a shy question finally asked, a childโ€™s laughter filling the room, these everyday moments quietly build the foundation for learning, confidence, and care.

And in each story they share, thereโ€™s a reminder that behind every child taking brave new steps is someone who shows up with patience, love and belief in their potential.

Our Story

Project ECHOยฎ (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) was founded by Dr. Sanjeev Arora in New Mexico in 2003 as a model to deliver and extend equitable healthcare and other critical resources to the worldโ€™s most vulnerable populations. Following its success, the ECHO model was then launched in India in 2008.

Today, ECHO India is a fast-growing non-profit organization working towards bridging gaps in healthcare & education with backing by funders such as Co-Impact, Tata Trusts, Goradia Foundation among many others.

Leveraging our knowledge-sharing platform within the framework of the ECHO principles, our goal is to replicate and support Project ECHOยฎ programs in India with an aim to demonopolize knowledge and amplify capacity.

As on date, ECHO India has 30+ prestigious academic institutions as partners running ECHO programs in 20+ focus areas in more than 55 cities across the country.
