Full Job Description
Problem:
586 million children across the world live in monetary poor households. In light of the
recent pandemic, it is now estimated that 219 million of these children reside in India.
(UNICEF & World Bank). The intersectional effects of poverty such as discrimination,
violence, unhealthy lifestyles and illness act as a deterrent in these children’s ability
to develop holistically.
These children attend schools that lack the curriculum and infrastructure to cater to
a child’s creative and social emotional development that are critically important for
success in school and life. While these reforms exist within the National Education
Policy 2020, there is a gap in the teacher training infrastructure to implement them
effectively within the education system.These issues have been further exacerbated
by the pandemic with more children showcasing poor social & emotional health and
more educators experiencing a disconnect from their students at an emotional level
(Azim Premji University).
Solution:
Saturday Art Class partners with organisations to train and build capacity in their
educators to integrate creativity, compassion and awareness into a child’s education
journey by providing them with the necessary tools & training to bring about a
positive change in the lives of children aged 7 – 14 from disadvantaged communities.

world around them.

learning skills to bring about a positive change in the lives of children from
