Education


Education is India's greatest strenght and its greatest weakness. There are millions of children in fields, on the road, in factories,...everywhere but in school.

The children won't come in with handkerchiefs neatly pinned on uniform pockets. But in clothes that probably bear stains of soot or grease.


If you teach in India, it isn't something that'll help a child get to the next class. But it will help them to a future free of poverty and deprivation.


Learning won't happen from textbooks. But pages from your life and often, from the lives of the students themselves.

And when a child from this class passes, the nation wil graduate. From being the world's largest illiterate population to the world's largest literate workforce....
