INJUSTICE
Educational Inequity: To solve the injustice of educational Inequity through peer education, adult education and self-help by creating a learning centre for both adults as well as for children.
WHO & HOW
The people in the community starting from children to adults are affected by the injustice of educational inequity. The injustice has continued to affect the community for 4 generations and is, even more, worse during this pandemic where the normal schooling is hampered, and online learning is still not accessible for them.
WHY
The injustice is mainly caused by the system as a whole. When education and development of the communities become a lesser priority the injustice rises up. The poor schooling system which doesn't focus on the quality of education and lack of awareness of the importance of education among the community members is a major reason for the prevailing injustice.
ROOT CAUSES
