CARTS OF KNOWLEDGE
Some of the city’s busiest intersections were crowded with begging children who needed urgent intervention. Parking the Mobile Learning Buses in these areas was impossible, so Aasraa devised an innovative solution-refurbishing vendor carts into mobile learning centres. In 2018, two such Education Carts were introduced in Darshan Lal Chowk and Prem Nagar, bringing education directly to children in the city’s most congested areas.
INTERACTIVE EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN
Children visit the Education Carts and engage with a variety of learning materials. Here, they are introduced to foundational skills such as holding a pencil, drawing with colors, learning the alphabet, and singing rhymes. Storybooks, building blocks, drawing sheets, and other creative resources are used to involve them in engaging and interactive activities.
HOLISTIC CARE FOR EVERY CHILD
Comprehensive care is provided to every child attending the Education Cart. This includes access to educational resources, medical support, and nutritious meals. It is essential to sustain their interest in learning so that they can eventually transition into the formal education system.
