Who we are
Myself Anshuman Singh and I'm a proud Gandhi Fellow working in Aspirational district Sonbhdra . During my Community Immersion (a Fellowship process) i stayed in Kataundhi village for 20 days and I observed that there is no any environment to study in village after the school time and that’s why SLO is very low. Villagers are also not capable of creating that kind of environment for their children. I and government teacher did healthy conversation with Gram Pradhan and decided to create a ‘Gram Shiksha Unnayan Samiti’ and open a community library in Samudayaik Bhavan of the village.

The core belief of the program is that the only way we can ensure all lives are improved is if we have committed and skilled people in large impact roles, who can collaborate and innovate to solve such problems at scale.
