About
Built around outcomes, led by people.
Positive Outcomes Alliance is a human-centred organization that helps people, communities and institutions navigate complex challenges, access clearer pathways and achieve measurable positive outcomes.
Why Positive Outcomes Alliance exists
Positive outcomes rarely come from one organization, one service or one technology working alone. POA brings people, knowledge, responsible innovation and community partnerships together to create clearer pathways forward.
Our founders.
Shivi and Amit share one vision: responsible innovation that strengthens human capacity rather than replacing it. Their complementary experience — one in public and business leadership, one in technology and infrastructure — supports POA's approach and every solution developed under it, including DEVII.
Shivi Darubra
CEO
Shivi leads POA's public and business side: partnerships, communications and how the alliance shows up for the organizations and communities it serves, including DEVII.

01
Outcomes before technology
We start from the result that matters, never from the tool.
02
Evidence over assertion
Baselines and KPIs come first, so claims of progress can be checked.
03
Humans stay in charge
Qualified professionals review and control every sensitive decision.
04
Consent and continuity
The people a system serves decide what is shared, and can change their minds.
05
Honest boundaries
We say clearly what a system is not, and what has not been proven yet.
