The Challenges We Face

Lack of Awareness

According to a QS World University Rankings survey, 65% of students from rural India are unaware of the benefits and opportunities available through higher education.

Skills Gap

The Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) reports that 50% of recent graduates from underprivileged areas face higher unemployment rates due to a lack of advanced skills required to prosper in today’s economy.

Insufficient Guidance

The National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) indicates that 63% of students from disadvantaged regions do not have access to expert counselling about higher education.

Financial Barriers

The Indian Council for Cultural Relations states that nearly 72% of Indian students cite financial constraints as a major barrier to higher education.

Support Deficiency

According to Statista, 60% of students from underprivileged backgrounds lack adequate support and guidance for higher education.

Our Approach to Solving These Problems

We believe in empowering children and young people through education and awareness. Here’s a few examples of hoe we tackle these challenges:

Anant's Stories

Anant faced the issue of gender identity, maybe due to his abduction by a transgender in his childhood. Anant, a biological male, wanted to change due to the influence of the Transgender community who made him feel important. Anant began to open up through a series of personalised and family counselling sessions. He was always told that he was free to convert but only if he actually wanted. Now Anant has refused to convert and is focussed about his future.

Akshay's Stories

Akshay , a 15 year old boy, unfortunately, lost his father and became the sole bread-winner for his family. By the time his mother found a job, he had lost interest in studies and stopped going to school. When Shubhakshika staff spotted him in Shahbad Dairy in 2013, idling away his time, "Nothing interests me!” he told them short and clear. Somehow, they convinced him to visit the shelter home.
