Approach

Challenges

Goal and Status Rationale

principles, except ignore the academic performance and IQ, and emphasis on providing appropriate educational

• pportunities to rehabilitate the families
• Collaborate with Tata Memorial for cancer

afflicted, Sahas foundation for acid victims’, Adhar (Akola) for suicide-prone farmers’, and Vijay Krida Mandal for prostitutes’ families

members

• The devastation makes the family very sensitive

and counseling them on the right path becomes a challenge

• Goal for AY 2019-20 is to support 25 students

from the distressed families

GEF Project – Adolescent Development Program (Super-30)

• There are many school students who are

high on potential and low on resources.

• They do not receive all-round education in

schools and do not build the required foundation for higher studies and fail short

significant performance drop thereafter

Approach

Challenges

Goal and Status Rationale

students’ 5th standard scholarship examination performance

• Use the framework that will work on physical

literacy, psychological strength, intellectual prowess, and entrepreneurial zeal.

• The framework provides a four year plan along

with regular measurements to track the project success

• The program requires committed school

authorities and teachers

• In rural areas, the trainers may not be easily

available and the technology support may not be adequate for remote sessions

• Goal for AY 2019-20 is to extend the project

at the current two schools (Thane and Osmandabad) to 7th standard and initiate at 3 more schools from 6th standard.
