The Problem
Merit-oriented learning and highly competitive environments provide very few spaces that celebrate learning, nurture individual strengths and prepare children for the future. This has also resulted in childrenās social and emotional needs taking a backseat.
Children are experiencing undue levels of stress and feel pressured to āperform wellā. The current pandemic has only made this worse by adding newer challenges.
As per the National Mental Health Survey 2016, nearly 9.8 million young Indians in the age group 13-17 were in need of support due to high levels of stress. The current pandemic has only made this worse by adding newer challenges.
12,500+
children have benefited through Bhumiās SEL program since 2017
400+
educators in 60 schools and 23 urban community centres have enrolled in capacity building for emotional wellbeing
