Ritu: Happy to be with you, Spiffy! As per World Economic Forum, key skills of tomorrow are environmental stewardship, global citizenship, creativity, digital skills, and collaboration. Did you know there is no structured curriculum for schools to develop these skills in students?
Richa: I’m happy to be here today, Spiffy—thanks for having me! Children from low socio-economic and vulnerable backgrounds are unable to cope with poverty. Currently, 128 million children are enrolled in the Indian public education system and are unable to cope with the consequences of poverty, which leads to reduced attentiveness, lack of curiosity, demotivation and anger, etc. The Indian public education system lacks the area expertise to equip these children with the necessary skills to tackle poverty, cope with their reality, and become healthy, effective learners.
Jigyasa: Happy to be with you, Spiffy! Did you know that 131 million children in India's government schools lack opportunities to build socio-emotional learning (SEL) skills like empathy and compassion?
