Eklavya Program

We conducted a survey a few years ago to understand how many slum dwelling children could read and write a sentence in english. The result was an abysmal 40 percent. The survey also indicated that between 70-75 percent of children have no access to a computer. The lack of infrastructure and exposure at home and in school impacts students' lives in such a limiting way that most of them face a bleak future after school as they struggle to find a career path to uplift their life. .

Inspired by its namesake in the epic Mahabharata, Lakshya Jeevan Jagriti’s Eklavya program is centered on the principle of self-learning. 

The aim of the program is to reach out to millions of Eklavyas in India who, owing to a lack of resources and right guidance at home, are unable to achieve their full potential and dream big. 

Through this program, we aim to provide an innovative “why” based learning model to all these Eklavyas that helps them stand at par with the resourceful and privileged Arujnas of the outside world, through their sheer willingness to work hard and a burning desire to learn. 

In order to help our students, compete and find a footing in the job market, we provide English language and life skills training programs along with working with them to develop their minds in the direction of independent thinking and a self-reliant approach to knowledge gathering in life. We also support them with a varied range of personal mastery workshops and other self-reflection activities.

OUTCOME

  • To create self-expression and confidence in children by creating interest through knowledge-based activities. 
  • To help children from lower socio-economic backgrounds in developing skills that make them employable and financially independent. 
  • To connect our students with the outside world in order to prepare them for the demands of the globalized 21st-century job market. 
  • To help them embark on their personal journeys of self-discovery by making them competent in self-learning. 
  • To build a bridge between their knowledge and employability.
  • To help them become leaders and decision-makers of tomorrow.

 

 

My journey with Lakshya Jeevan Jagriti started seven years ago. Throughout my time with them, I have had countless opportunities to improve my communication skills and leadership skills through their “Personal Mastery” workshop that I got introduced to in class 6th. These skill trainings have helped me excel not just in academics, but also the extra curricular activities in school. Hopefully, I wish to continue to learn from Lakshya Jeevan Jagriti and one day become a doctor.
