Community Learning Centres

Uttarakhand Independent

About This Programme

We operate 3 learning centres in the remote Van Gujjar communities of Thanda, Natthu Chhod, and Gujjar Basti in Uttarakhand. Each centre has a dedicated teacher who provides primary education, dividing children into groups based on their learning levels.

Many of these children cannot attend formal school due to extreme geographic remoteness or lack of community awareness. Beyond academics, children engage in games, sports, nature education, and arts. After completing primary education here, older children are helped to enroll in formal schools.
