Data For India has been live for one year now. It's been a dream year, expanding our team and doing the work we dreamed of. A few quick highlights:

India is a relatively young country. Half of India's population is under the age of 30, making it a far younger country than its European, North American and East Asian counterparts. The median American or Chinese person, for instance, is over a decade older than the median

In collaboration with @CASIPenn, @dataforin is doing a three-part series on the big demographic changes India is going through. Part 1 went out yesterday to @CASIPenn's newsletter subscribers and on their website, and you can read it here:

On November 5th, I'm sending out a special first-anniversary edition of The Big Shift that recaps some of the, well, big shifts, of the last year. Sign up, write to us, and keep reading!

The newsletter goes out to our subscibers, and subscription is free at https://t.co/HfCaDCEdNu. I also enjoy discussions with newsletter subscribers, and we've done interactions and interviews with some of you over the last year.

🧵Yesterday I sent out the 50th edition of The Big Shift, @dataforin's weekly newsletter on long-term transformation in India. It's a real joy to be able to build on my excellent team's work, and to zoom out and really see the big picture - good, bad, and mostly in between.

Updates are a team effort, requiring substantial data science, engineering, research, writing and visualisation resources. Pulling this off was an important milestone for us, and sets @dataforin up well for future updates in other fields.

Alongside updating our charts and pieces, we have also updated insights from this data, noting major milestones in declining fertility, in falling childhood mortality and in rising overall mortality

We have now published a major update of our work on fertility, mortality and population growth using updated data from India's Sample Registration System and from the UN

🧵Data For India (@dataforin, https://t.co/HfCaDCELD2) is a knowledge resource and not a news publication. We want people to come here to answer for themselves questions that they have about India, through good data. As a result, our pieces of writing are living documents.

@dataforin @nileena_suresh Read our work on custom tailoring here:

@dataforin @nileena_suresh Alongside this examination of custom tailoring work, she also looked at the evolution of this category in Indian data - there's been much debate about whether this is a manufacturing job at all.

For this piece for @dataforin, @nileena_suresh looked more closely at who India's custom tailors really are. She found that most are women, self-employed and work from home. Many do this work alongside household chores. Wages are low.

One in six Indians working in manufacturing, and one in three women in the manufacturing workforce, are 'custom tailors'. Of the 14 million new manufacturing jobs added between 2018 and 2024, five million were in custom tailoring alone.

🧵Over the last few months, we've been looking deeply into data on India's manufacturing workforce. The closer we looked, especially at data on women workers, the more we noticed one area of work in particular - 'custom tailoring'.

For more on unorganised manufacturing, including what is actually being manufactured and by whom, read our work here:

There is a substantial share of women in the unorganised manufacturing workforce (just under half). But most women run their own one-person manufacturing units, mainly in apparel and textiles. Very few hire other workers - the establishments that hire workers are run by men.

Most are being run from the owner's house, use the owner's own bank account, do not maintain balance sheets, and are not registered under GST.

Most unorganised manufacturing in India is basically one person with at most an unpaid family member - just one in five units have a hired worker

New on @dataforin: our deep-dive into unorganised manufacturing in India, by @akwaghmare https://t.co/5LO7TqWCwZ 20 million unorganised manufacturing units employ 60-75% of India's manufacturing workforce, so it's vital to understand them. Some key insights:
