The document summarizes a project to provide education to underprivileged children in Delhi slums. A group of university students formed a society called FOT GANG to teach 45 slum kids basic literacy skills like alphabets and numbers on the university campus from 5-6:15pm each weekday.

The university administration supported the project by providing space and funding. Both the children and student teachers benefit from the interactive learning experience. The group hopes to expand this model to more universities to help address social problems at scale through youth participation.

This document proposes solutions to improve primary education in India. It discusses four solutions: 1) A parallel primary education network run by volunteer youth, 2) Promoting the use of technology in schools, 3) Public-private partnerships to enhance schools, and 4) Enriching learning through hands-on methods.

The overall goal is to address issues like high dropout rates and low learning levels in Indian primary education.
This document proposes a 3-tier skill development framework to address India's shortage of 1.2 crore jobs per year for the next decade. It involves (1) 6-month skill courses for unemployed graduates run through public-private partnerships, (2) mandatory career counseling and 100-day apprenticeships for secondary students, and (3) extended skill and apprenticeship programs for school dropouts aged 14+. This framework aims to provide industry-relevant skills while reducing costs through private sector involvement. It could help direct workers towards new job markets and improve productivity across the economy. Challenges include gaining political and institutional support, but the document argues these can be addressed through awareness campaigns and leveraging existing IT infrastructure.
This document discusses increasing youth employability by focusing on three main types of employability skills: basic academic skills like reading and writing; higher-order thinking skills such as problem solving and decision making; and personal qualities including self-confidence, social skills, and a good work attitude. It notes that the real challenge for employers is finding workers with these job readiness skills and recommends teaching employability skills through involving parents, providing opportunities to observe workplaces, and designing classrooms to mimic real work settings.

Udaar Foundation trusts and engages in giving all the assets to the penniless to help them so that they can make their own predetermination. We established this NGO due to the need of offering a chance to help the helpless kids, individuals and youth of India. We aim to diminish the destitution in India. Throughout the recent 2 years, Udaar Foundation has dealt with numerous tasks identified with mindfulness crusades like - Seminars on feminine wellbeing, women strengthening, sports, and women business venture which points toward aiding the oppressed part of the country. We have consistently believed that through development and grassroot endeavors, our youngsters can change this nation. Regardless of whether rich or poor, the cutting edge has the ability to change this world. The wide range of our exercises and their prosperity rate talk about committed work done by Udaar Foundation.
All children have the fundamental right to education, but millions of them are never enrolled in a school or are dropped out for varied reasons, especially in families where the parents are illiterate themselves, and are facing an acute shortage of resources daily. The probability of those children working at reputable organizations and pursuing their dreams is minimal, and they often never get a chance to grow and prosper.

Educated Parents: What they do…
Parents play a huge role in a child’s learning. Studies show that many children learn
reading and arithmetic largely from the individualized support from parents.

schools to put

Poverty: How it affects education…
Education can make a huge difference in the lives of poor children. It can decisively
break their cycle of poverty. Poor parents recognize this well. They often fail in their
attempts to get their children educated, but it is not due to a lack of trying.
A poor child starts life with
a disadvantage. The child
grows in an environment
with no books, no toys, no
one who reads out to her.
Govt balwadi the child
attends has no
resources or training to
provide pre-primary
education
If lucky the Govt
school nearby
might have good
teachers
Child’s areas of lag and
areas of talent - both
remain undiscovered
and unsupported.
Under-confident
children with poor
learning levels
Parents unable to
help after school.
Don’t know what child
is learning or what
she finds difficult.
The Urgent Need
Studies1
show that good after school
support can compensate for many
gaps in the child’s environment.
Poor parents already recognize the
need for after-school support. They
are even willing to pay Rs 30-50 per
month to send their children to an
‘evening tuition center’.
But less than 15% of the villages have
after-school centers. And often even
these few centers are of very poor
quality – with one untrained teacher
simultaneously handling 50-60
children from Std 1 to Std 10.

Eureka SuperKidz: Implementation
Plans
Focus Villages: We have selected 50 focus blocks in 10 districts to implement this
project. Within each block we have selected 20 most marginalized villages to start the
project. (We have already started the program in a few villages and are waiting for funds.)
Eureka SuperKidz Centers in each village will reach 75
children
In each village, 3 trained local teachers run separate classes for LKG-UKG, Std 1-3
and Std 4-6. (In Year 2 we will add on Std 7-8 as well).
Each class runs for 3 hours every day in the evenings. (KG class for 2 hours.)
With our specially developed materials, methods and skill chart, teachers track every
child’s progress and ensure all children achieve the required language and math,
science and English competencies. Children who are lagging behind are separately
followed up and provided additional attention and improved.
Right from the start we get parents to contribute towards the teachers’ honorarium.
This ensures teacher accountability and regular attendance by children.
Every quarter, a progress report card is sent to parents and parent meetings held to
discuss their child’s progress. Village learning festivals are also organized where
children show-case their learning and talents.
