ABOUT us

Gramin Shiksha Kendra was set up as a response to the demand for Quality Education from the rural communities of Sawai Madhopur. Through Uday Community Education Program, we have brought a significant change in the way the education is understood and perceived by communities and imparted to children. 

Our interventions aim to ensure the active participation of the groups we work with, so they can ‘lead’ the process of change. We combine some elements of service delivery to demonstrate, educate and build an understanding amongst the community. We aim for a situation where communities understand their realities and have the right confidence and capacities to overcome the present and future challenges in their growth.

After working for almost two decades, our priority is to eliminate the discrimination on basis of Caste or Gender in accessing the quality education and other fundamental rights by working with children, parents’ community and teachers, adolescent girls and youth, and the indigenous communities classified as De-notified and Nomadic communities of Ranthambhor.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

We firmly believe that the community and the schools must come together in order to improve the ecosystem of education and so the schools are accountable to the community. The community must come out of their current role of merely a service recipient, and must act as a partner in imparting an equitable and inclusive education to their children.
