Strong Foundation

Ensuring that children aged between 3-10 years, in the most marginalised communities, get a fair chance to acquire the essential learning skills like reading comprehension, writing ability, numeracy, English speaking, emotional stability, and gender sensitivity during their foundation years.

Programmes

Kanya Sampoorna

The Kanya Sampoorna Project is a multi-thematic intervention through Heath, Education and Livelihoods, focused on the girl child, and aims at systemic and lasting change.

Development for the child starts in the womb. However, the mothers are young women whose health is critical for their own well-being, as well as the healthy development of the child. Given this situation, the project first focuses on health and nutrition inputs to the pregnant and lactating mothers, and moves on to ensuring early childhood care.
