So whats going on?

A song resonates in my head:

Oh Re Taal Mile Nadi Ke Jal Mein
Nadi Mile Saagar Mein
Saagar Mile Kaunse Jal Mein 
Koi Jaane Na...

Things have started coming together for our initiative. 

We have with us an educator who has spent decades into the system but still has a radical thought process and understands system's gaping holes well enough. She will be one of our key mentors for this project. We will also make our first impact in her own school SSMI , an aided school located in Punjabi Bagh. We are already taking workshops with class 8th and 9th student batches of this school (more on this in another blog post). 

We have young professionals who are working in skill building domain and will contribute with their fresh thought and ideas on the experiential exercises, classroom activities on various key life skills that we will bring into the classroom. Through a range of experiential activities, we will ensure that the learning is imbibed.

We have a student group from Delhi University that would make short films and animation videos on the various key life skill themes. Through videos and short films we plan to leave a lasting impact on young minds.

We now have a team of evangelists who will reach out to schools/educators and introduce them to our thought and ideas and will further engage them in later half of this year. We plan to enable them to implement this  in their own schools.

Skills for Life in Simple Steps:
  • Build a life skills curriculum
  • Create innovative classroom activities, videos, short films
  • Implement at SSMI
  • Reach out to govt schools/educators and enable them to implement it in their own schools
