Education

Providing holistic education to children gives them valuable life skills and promises a brighter future for our planet. Improving education for children from socially and economically disadvantaged communities holds promise to bring much needed equality. AID Boston supports projects that work on improving basic education skills and provide holistic environmental education benefiting rural communities.  

This is how AID takes steps towards quality education and empowerment:

• Developing Curriculum:  Activity-based lessons with interactive materials motivate children to explore concepts from multiple angles rather than by rote.  Government, non-government schools as well as after-school centers use these methods and materials. 
• Strengthening Public Schools: AID partners engage with government schools to improve teaching methods and see that all children have a right to meaningful, quality education.
• Reaching the Unreached: In undeserved communities, AID partners run schools and bridge courses to help students in remote and tribal areas prepare for and adjust in mainstream schools.  AID also supports model schools implementing effective innovative techniques in rural areas.
• Integrating with Civic Life:  Students apply what they learn to questions they face in their communities regarding caste, class, gender, natural resources and development.
