Sense International India, also known as Sense India, was established in 1997 as the first and only non-governmental organisation to support the development of comprehensive services for people with deafblindness and multiple disabilities throughout India. Sense India works with local organisations to develop sustainable services for children and adults with deafblindness and collaborates with the government at centre and state levels. We have reached to provide needs-based services to around 80,000 children with deafblindness directly through 60 partner NGOs in 23 states of India, and through collaboration with the government’s national Samagra Shiksha - ‘inclusive education’ programme. With our effort, children with deafblindness and multiple disabilities have been identified and are being prepared to attend mainstream schools. We are also partnering with leading organisations in Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Maldives and Malaysia to train educators and setup needs-based services for deafblind. Sense India advocates for the recognition and realisation of rights of persons with deafblindness with the government and our biggest achievement has been recognition of ‘Deafblindness’ in the Rights of Persons with Disability Act 2016 and their rights are now protected. The inclusion of vaccination for Rubella under the Universal Immunization Programme is another significant achievement of our advocacy initiatives. We are a member of several Central Government and State level advisory groups. Sense India is accredited by the United Nations and enjoys consultative status on deafblindness.

We build grassroots leadership by identifying and training community women as SRH health leaders. These women become key agents of change, spreading vital health knowledge and ensuring access to essential services. Our programs equip them with accurate, practical information on topics like menstruation, pregnancy care, contraceptive methods, sexually transmitted infections, HIV/AIDS, and reproductive cancers. These leaders actively engage their communities through sessions, exhibitions, and awareness campaigns, fostering open dialogue and breaking taboos around reproductive health. Our goal is not just to inform but to empower—helping women and girls make confident decisions about their health. By creating strong local leadership and ensuring accurate information reaches even the most marginalized households, we aim to build healthier communities and a stronger foundation for women’s rights and well-being. To read more: https://www.sanchetana.org/health/Emotional Health: At Sanchetana, emotional well-being is at the heart of our initiative to build empathetic leadership and promote peaceful co-existence in the urban slums of Ahmedabad. Recognizing the emotional toll of systemic marginalization, we work with adolescent girls, their mothers, and women community leaders to strengthen self-awareness and empathy. Through innovative tools such as empathy circles, art therapy, psychodrama, and Non-Violent Communication (NVC), we create safe spaces for emotional expression and understanding. These circles bring together participants from diverse caste and religious backgrounds—Hindu, Muslim, Scheduled Castes, and more—fostering dialogue and dismantling deep-rooted social barriers. Our program aims to establish empathetic leaders over three years, equipping them to address trauma, resolve conflicts, and support communal harmony. By empowering women and girls with emotional literacy and leadership skills, Sanchetana is nurturing compassionate communities where differences are respected, voices are heard, and peace becomes a shared responsibility. To read more: https://www.sanchetana.org/emotional-health/Environment Conservation: At Sanchetana Community Health and Research Centre, environmental conservation is a key focus that complements our work in health, education, and livelihoods. We believe that a healthy environment is essential for community well-being and are committed to promoting sustainable practices in urban slums. Through community-based initiatives like tree plantation drives, Khamba compost systems for household waste management, and the development of kitchen gardens, we encourage families to adopt eco-friendly habits. These efforts help reduce pollution, improve nutrition, and raise awareness about environmental responsibility. Our partnerships, such as with the Centre for Environment Education under the Green Ahmedabad Initiative, have further expanded our green footprint. From turning barren areas into green spaces to teaching families how to grow indigenous crops at home, Sanchetana integrates environmental learning into everyday life. These practices empower communities to not only care for their surroundings but also actively contribute to building a healthier, more sustainable urban future. To read more: https://www.sanchetana.org/environment/Center for Learning: Sanchetana’s Center for Learning aims to reduce unemployment and promote economic independence among women and adolescent girls in urban slum communities by offering a wide range of skill-based training programs. These include computer education, English-speaking courses, beautician training, tailoring, mehndi art, and a Digital Literacy Program that builds confidence and leadership in adolescent girls. Recognizing mobility challenges, Sanchetana also runs area-level vocational training at the neighborhood level, bringing courses like basic beauty and henna training directly to beneficiaries’ homes. Through the Sozen Kari embroidery initiative, women not only learn traditional embroidery but also earn by selling their work. To support women starting their own ventures, the Capital Assistance Program offers financial aid that enables them to shift from low-paying labor to self-employment. These programs are more than just trainings—they open doors to income generation, boost confidence, and enable women to become active contributors to their families and communities.

These leaders meet regularly, build skills, and work to claim their rights and entitlements. Their efforts have enabled hundreds to access government schemes like ration cards, Aadhaar cards, and election IDs. Under the Right to Education Act, they facilitate school admissions for underprivileged children. These leaders also spread awareness about health and education through community classes and health clubs. By forming and supporting Self-Help Groups, they guide women toward financial independence through bank linkages and loans.

Code to Enhance Learning (CEL), a nonprofit based out of Ahmedabad, leverages coding as a tool to build critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and perseverance in children from grades 4 to 9. We have reached 5800+ children till now through our various offerings collaborating with clients and supporters such as Teach for India, Riverside school, Firki, Quest Alliance, K7 Computing, UnLtd India, etc. We offer an engaging, affordable, and confidence-building coding program to children. Indirectly, we also create informed and invested parents and communities in the journey of building 21st-century skills in children. We share an open-source skill-based coding curriculum, place CEL’s trained facilitator in classrooms or train in-house teachers and monitor the progress of children. We also provide opportunities for children to showcase their projects aligned to UN Sustainable Development Goals in front of industry experts and distinguished stakeholders. Our programs include:1) CEL Student Coding Program where our experts directly work with students2) CEL Teacher Coding Program to train teachers to implement the curriculum effectively and efficiently3) CEL Kids Hackathon for students to showcase their code projects aligned to UNs SDGs. One of the key highlights of our program is that 60% of the students who have undergone the training were able to successfully identify a problem around them, brainstorm on solutions with their partners, design the right abstraction, and implement the code without any additional guidance. They also demonstrated the ability to collaborate and share responsibilities as well as persevere and overcome challenges, which reaffirms their confidence. In the next five years, through virtual platforms and tailored content, we aim to reach 1 lakh, underprivileged children. Our goal is to impart 21st-century communication and problem-solving skills to these children so that they are empowered to lead happy, confident lives and be game-changers themselves.
