What if NGOs didn’t exist?

If NGOs didn’t exist, the problems would still be there; visible and measurable, but we would lack the coordinated effort required to systematically address and solve them at scale.

When children drop out of school, who brings them back?

Dropping out of school rarely happens overnight. It’s often the result of small disruptions—economic pressure, lack of support at home, low confidence, or the feeling that school no longer has a place for you.

Bringing a child back, therefore, takes more than a single conversation. It takes trust, patience, and a community that believes education is

What happens when math moves out of the textbook and into the hands of learners?

At a recent workshop conducted by ILP in collaboration with UST, ILP facilitators and primary & middle school maths teachers from 10 Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) schools experienced exactly that—learning math through doing. Using Akshara Maths Kits, the session focused on turning abstract ideas into something you can touch, test, and truly
