PREPARING STUDENTS FOR A BETTER FUTURE
About US
Founded in 2015, Aawaaz started off as an organisation with a vision to change the way the education was perceived in India. In a country where Board curriculums restrict the students to a cycle of rote memorization and giving exams, Aawaaz started modifying curriculum to make it more interactive. With an initiation in the field of education with a focus on critical thinking, general awareness and public speaking, we started taking classes in various schools, ranging from grade 3rd to 12th grade, with different courses to best suit the grades involved. For the more senior students(grade 9th-12th), we also provided training in the fields of Debate and MUN, to help prepare them for utilising the core skills Aawaaz adopted in competitive spaces.
With a gradual spread to schools in Delhi NCR, with several schools in Gurgaon, Noida and Faridabad alongside Delhi, we were able to execute our curriculum in several different cities like Gwalior, Jaipur, Meerut and Naukuchiyatal. Alongside working in private schools, Aawaaz also recognised the need for co-curricular education in government schools, to generate more interest in the education being provided there. To follow up on this, Aawaaz also undertook several projects with organisations like the Simple Education Foundation and St+Art Foundation to organise programmes and classes for students in government schools, in the fields of Public Speaking, Arts and Crafts, Dance, Music, and Theatre.
However, one organisation cannot possibly bring about large scale change to the system of education by simply holding classes. As we gained more and more experience in teaching students with varying rigour levels, we understood the importance of contextualisation in education systems, alongside understanding the need for a qualitative method for analysing student potential, instead of a standardised and quantitative one.
Aawaaz(previously Project Aawaaz), as of 2019, has expanded to start various functions with one common goal: To make education holistic and accessible to all.
