Programs

  • CAPACITY BUILDING PROGRAM

    The Program aims to enhance the educational quality of non-government organizations (NGOs) working with children. Recognizing that many NGOs lack skilled manpower and understanding of quality education’s nuances, particularly its soft components, Nalanda offers residential training programs to improve their capacity. Each year, ten NGOs are selected to participate in a phased training course, focusing on national educational policies, local issues, and innovative ideas. Since its inception, the program has benefitted 124 NGOs, fostering a network of organizations committed to improving children's education.

  • INTEGRATING TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION

    State

    The program, launched in 2014, aims to bridge the rural-urban digital divide and enhance learning quality by incorporating technology into education. Implemented across Madarsas in Uttar Pradesh, this unique initiative integrates technology with curriculum and pedagogy, providing students with an opportunity to improve their learning experiences. By establishing 10 ITE centers in three districts, Nalanda strives to uplift children’s educational levels, empowering them with the skills and knowledge necessary for the modern world, fostering both academic and technological growth.
