Story

Have you ever imagined creating and innovating while still in school? Imagine being 13 or 14 and coming up an idea that could make a real difference!

Meet Supriya, Srichaitra, Ramcharan and Pranay, four 13-year-olds who did just that. Observing the mid-day meal preparations at their school, they noticed the chefs (who are mostly middle-aged women) struggling with heavy vessels to cook 50 -70 kgs of food everyday. Supriya and team wanted to help them, they thought, "Why not design a vessel that can:

  • Tilt to drain out starch water easily,
  • Rise to be placed on top of a fire,
  • Be wheeled around to move from the cooking to serving area?"

And voila… the Vantra Mitra [Chef Friendly Vessel] was born!

Their ability to -

  • Observe and Empathize with the challenges faced by others,
  • Identify and critique issues that need fixing
  • Innovate and come up with Creative ideas
  • Prototype and bring their ideas to life!

These are the superpowers our next generation needs—to be both future-ready and effective in addressing societal challenges.

To nurture such superpowers, we need to mainstream new-age education that fosters these skills. We are seeking to run an Innovation fellowship for determined College students who can in turn take the onus of facilitating such new-age education programs in nearby government schools in Telangana. This program features a well-researched curriculum, activity cards, and tinkering materials designed to spark creativity and innovation in children. 

The Innovation fellows will deliver the program across 4 partner schools, closely guiding snd mentoring 350 children through their Innovation journeys.

The estimated project fund is 12 lakhs and would be spent towards:

  1. Selection, training of fellows,
  2. Delivery of learning materials to 350 students
  3. On-going implementation support.
  4. Showcasing of student ideas
  5. Advanced prototyping support for select ideas

This Fellowship model that connects college students to nearby schools and children can be a blueprint for extending such programs to many more schools in the future. Lets together mainstream new age education and give voice to the many Supriya's and Srichaitra's out there. It was also instill a sense of service, leadership and innovation in a large cadre of College Youth.

They are our beacons of change and the architects of our future!

Their educational experience depends on us.
