The science programme is the component of our collaborating partner, the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation in Delhi. Our foundation promotes their programmes 'Sadbhavana with Nature and GenNext STEP (Generation Next Science, Technology, and Entrepreneurship Practice)'. Sadbhavana with Nature encourages children to build a meaningful connection with the natural world, while GeNext STEP fosters a love for science and entrepreneurship.
The programme is designed to spark curiosity and develop a scientific mindset in young learners through hands-on experiments, interactive workshops, and nature-based exploration. By making science accessible, enjoyable, and rooted in real-world experiences, the programme nurtures the next generation of thinkers, innovators, and problem-solvers. Through this partnership we aim to inculcate scientific temper and connection with nature.
The Ge-Next STEP has been running parallel with the outreach programme ‘Reading For Joy’. While the Reading For Joy fosters a love for reading, the Ge Next STEP delivers engaging science activities and learning opportunities for children in both the primary and secondary sections of our collaborating schools. In addition to school-based sessions, the science programme also hosts activities at the Reading Room, our library for children from the villages and various other schools. These inclusive, hands-on experiences aim to make science fun, accessible, and relevant to the everyday lives of young children.
