Our Entrepreneurial Mindset Development program was rolled out successfully across Andhra Pradesh, reaching 26 districts and 4,500 plus schools this year. The program was focused on enabling the development of Entrepreneurial Mindsets of students through a curriculum which was experiential and Project based. The program was integrated into the school timetables and enabled through teachers within each school. Over the course of this Project based curriculum, the students worked in teams, received inputs for identifying societal problems that they would like to solve, and with a support system developed their ideas into viable prototype solutions.
To deepen our impact, we are designing a number of online and offline features for the program to improve content delivery and deepen implementation quality.
