Through action research, photo-journalism, and ethnography, the case explores the trajectory of vulnerability through the lens of violence, health, psychological impacts, social bonds, and access to housing. The case narrates the realities of homelessness in Delhi as well as their official and informal responses. By presenting an integrated perspective of the drivers of homelessness and the complex nature of vulnerability and deprivation, this case allows learners to consider alterative indicators when thinking about social safety nets and reimagine how to design basic services in the city.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Case Author<\/strong><br \/>\nAshwin Parulkar\u00a0completed an MFA in creative writing and an MA in international relations at Syracuse University. \u00a0He currently writes on a range of issues related to hunger and social exclusion as a senior researcher with Center for Equity Studies. \u00a0Previously, wrote on India, Nepal, and Bhutan for Freedom House\u2019s Freedom in the World report and has served as a consultant at numerous international research and human rights organizations, including the\u00a0International Food Policy Research Institute,\u00a0UNICEF, the\u00a0International Service for Human Rights,\u00a0and ActionAid International.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":3745,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"portfolio_entries":[38],"class_list":["post-3713","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_entries-poverty-livelihoods"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/3713","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3713"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/3713\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3745"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3713"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3713"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_entries","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iihs.co.in\/knowledge-gateway\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_entries?post=3713"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
