Agastya is actively engaged in propagating hands-on learning among poor rural children and teachers. It streams its vision and mission to rural India through a variety of channels including a creativity lab located on a 172-acre campus near Bangalore, 105 mobile labs spread across 14 states in India, and 45 science centers spread across Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka.
We make education accessible to children, irrespective of their economic and social background.
If it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a group of right-minded people to educate one. Agastya takes great pride in the vision of its founding team which catalyzed the transformation of pedagogy in India. Turning the vision into reality are children and teachers of government schools and Agatsya’s instructors, who encourage the spirit of inquiry in children. Agastya’s advisers and members include entrepreneurs, scientists, educators, philanthropists, and volunteers who believe that by transforming education lives are transformed.
