Addhyayan - Inclusive Education

Vision.

Project Addhyayan is an education movement, dedicated to improving the quality of learning of students with disabilities. Education is one of the most effective ways to break the cycle of discrimination and poverty that children and youth with disabilities often face. Project Adhyayan’s vision is to provide a support system where every child and youth with a disability can grow up healthy, protected from harm and educated, so they can reach their full potential, get employment and live with dignity.

Anjali Festival, Anjali Scholarships for College Students, Teacher Support to Special Schools, Saksham Educational Support for School Students from Slums, Audio Books Production and Braille Books Printing are some of the components of this program.
