Cognitive Empowerment
Human Possibilities Thinking in Schools Initiative
Cognitive empowerment of school children: Faith in my infinite potential.
Can we create the next generation of school students who don’t see themselves limited to ‘marks’ or ‘talents’ but believe that they are unlimited, infinite and full of inner potential? This challenge has led us down the path of designing and building an initiative for middle school children. The initiative has been translated into a program that has reached out to more than a million students through the school system over the past 5 years.
School students have shared how this has changed their vision of self and led them on a journey of manifesting myriad possibilities in their current student life with confidence & faith in themselves.
The initiative is looking out for partners who believe in the vision. The goal is to design & develop newer interventions for different age-groups like primary school children and different classes of institutions.
