The Global Education and Leadership Foundation (tGELF) is a not-for-profit organization that was founded in 2006 and is headquartered in Gurgaon, Hary Read moreana, India. It seeks to nurture 21st-century leadership and entrepreneurial skills based on ethics, altruism, and a bias for action in young individuals through a unique, interactive, and progressive curriculum developed in collaboration with the Graduate School of Education Harvard University and Teachers College Columbia University, USA. This long-term and sustained leadership curriculum called SKILLD (Skilling and Know-How Initiative for Lifelong Leadership Development) is being deployed in rural and urban schools across India. The leadership and entrepreneurship curriculum is for all students in the class. All students undergo the curriculum sessions facilitated by the teachers of the schools. In classes 11 and 12. A selected group of students forms the Leaders Club which adopts community action projects thereby making the leadership experience more practical and meaningful. Each year tGELF conducts teacher training workshops across the country in nodal areas on our leadership curriculum SKILLD. This is an activity-based, experiential curriculum with 10 session modules each of about 40- 60 minutes to be facilitated by the teachers identified by the school and trained in the annual workshops by us. The training workshops don’t just inform the teachers on how to facilitate the tGELF leadership curriculum sessions, but also enhance their pedagogy so that they can make their subject lessons more engaging and the learning process more enjoyable for the student. Apart from the deployment of the curriculum, tGELF offers opportunities to students through our annual youth fest called Harmony . Harmony is a unique melange of competitions, workshops, events, and lecture series bringing together school students 13 – 18 years of age from across the country and internationally. These competitions are our annual endeavour to identify leadership potential and honour today’s youth for their outstanding acts of community service, lending voice to action, and bringing positive change in our communities. The mission is to identify, select, support, monitor, mentor, evaluate, connect, and empower ethical and altruistic leaders. It achieves this through partnerships with communities and organizations at all levels dedicated to improving the inner and outer state of the world.
