EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR EDUCATION

PROBLEM STATEMENT

There is a discernible gap between the rural and urban education systems due to which rural children face many difficulties. APAR report in 2001 claims that more than 87% of children dropped out before completing their schooling. This eye-opening statistic is the result of several factors such as a lack of tools, inadequate number of schools and infrastructure, financial burdens, and low digital literacy that hinder these children from receiving the schooling they desire.
