Digitising nutrition delivery and beneficiary tracking for mothers and children in Telangana
Nutrition Delivery using BETS
In collaboration with the Mahabubnagar District Administration and the Aga Khan Academy, CDFI developed and deployed the Benefit Entitlement Tracking Solution (BETS), a mobile-based application to improve the efficiency and transparency of nutrition delivery through Anganwadi centres. The platform digitised beneficiary enrolment, attendance marking, and nutrition tracking, enabling real-time data visibility and reducing manual errors in service delivery.

Behind every data point is a mother who received her nutrition support on time and a child whose growth was tracked from the very start. BETS replaced paper registers with a simple digital tool that Anganwadi workers could use in the field, ensuring that every enrolled beneficiary received what they were entitled to, without gaps or delays.
