Self-Reliant India (SRI) is a non-profit organisation with a mission to make historically under-resourced communities self-reliant with access to quality education. We have attempted to achieve this by nurturing student and fellow role models from the community. Through community participation and responsibility, we hope to bring transformative change to government schools. And fashion them into successful learning spaces for historically under-resourced communities. We have been able to deliver quality education to kids from under-resourced communities for the past five years. It has also produced positive shifts in the form of improved community participation, student enrolment, and student learning levels, resulting in long-term sustainable transformation in schools. We are aiming to create more equal societies in which access to high-quality education is not limited by social or economic resources. We want children from traditionally under-resourced communities to have the same access to a quality education as children from resourceful families.
