Vision

Parikrma’s mission is to unleash the potential of underserved children, enabling them to live their life on equal terms and become valuable contributing members of society.

Reforming education in India has become a numbers game. Bigger, it seems, is better. But is it? The government, as well as most non-profit organizations, are working together to improve education as if it is just a statistic. They are addressing these huge numbers without addressing the quality of education. The statistics have, at best, shown marginal change. Is a child, then, just a number to be improved in Show More

Summary

They said enabling free education for the poor is fundamental. They said poverty can be fought with goodwill and sharing. What we don’t witness is how children from poor families still never make it to the mainstream/break this cycle of poverty. The answers point towards lack of quality education, long-term support, equal opportunity, the power of choice and gender equity. There is little evidence of such a working model in the country.
