What we do

a. Child Rights & Education
Global Pathfields’s rights based approach helps bring about lasting improvement to the lives of vulnerable children and their communities in India. Global Pathfields works for and with children. It works for basic education, proper healthcare, nutrition, child protection, and participation in development. Our pioneering programmes address children’s unique needs, giving them a healthy start, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. We work to build the capacity of civil society to address the development challenges together.

Rights of the children and Education is a key enabler to inclusive growth, sustainable development and participation in a democracy. It stimulates economic growth and empowers citizen to make informed decisions. While there has been significant progress in improving the access to primary and secondary education across the world, the quality of education, gaps in learning outcomes, inadequate infrastructure and teacher availability remains areas of concerns.

Strategic interventions are, therefore, essential to support policy reforms, effective planning and implementation of programmes, At Global Pathfields, we provide technical assistance to improve access, quality of education, through policy interventions, program implementation, capacity and institution building, programme management, design and implementation, monitoring and evaluation, learning assessments and research.

This includes enhancing pedagogical skills of all teachers. School Management Committees will be strengthened to support schools in delivering quality learning outcomes among children.
