The SKOCH State of Governance report is an annual report that studies project-level outcomes across various states of India.

The SKOCH State of Governance report also maps the shifting interests of different state governments and provides valuable insights into governance trends and opportunities.

The report is backed by a meticulous and exhaustive methodology where the best performing projects are submitted by the states for evaluation & the projects are first vetted by SKOCH research analysts and evaluated by a jury of three domain experts. After the jury and peer evaluation, the shortlisted projects are put to a popular vote on the website. This is supported by field research to assess the impact of the projects on the intended targets. Merit-listed projects garner expert votes through the exhibition and live polls to get an overall score, which decides the ranking of the state.
