People’s Assessment of Health, Education and Livelihoods (PAHELI) applies the ASER (Annual Status of Education Report) model to other social sectors in order to understand the status of key human development indicators. The PAHELI framework is built around four key human development domains: Life & Livelihoods, Water & Sanitation, Education & Literacy, Mother and Infant Health & Care. Based on the Millenium Development Goals and on national priorities, PAHELI is a household survey which looks at the provision of basic services at the village level through key central government social schemes and the links of these services to households. The schemes covered in PAHELI are Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, ICDS, public health services, PDS and MGNREGS.
