Pratham and National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) have been collaborating since 2018 to enhance foundational learning levels of children in Chhattisgarh. In 2021, Pratham and NPCI embarked on a new partnership aimed at improving children’s foundational literacy and numeracy skills across 430 villages in the Kanker District of Chhattisgarh; the program is known as ‘Foundational Learning Program’. The program also seeks to actively engage the local stakeholders in supporting educational needs of children in their communities leading to sustained impact. This is achieved through implementing the program using a multi-tiered approach of in-school, community, and digital interventions.
