Rural areas suffer from isolation, distance, lack of access to information and good libraries. Besides, literacy activities in the rural schools have been affected by lack of parental involvement. 'Ek Shala EK Kitab' is a shared reading experience for every family, every student, every day.
'Ek Shala Ek Kitab' aims to foster a love for reading and create a shared learning experience in the rural community.
The concept is simple yet powerful: every student, teacher, and staff member receives a copy of the same book to read together. By collective reading and discussing, we aspire to promote literacy, ignite imaginations, and spark meaningful conversations among students and adults.
'Ek Shala Ek Kitab’ initiative reached Adsena village in Chhattisgarh, where every student and every family in the village reads the same book. We are building a community of readers in the village to promote shared development and a growth mindset, while emphasizing parental involvement and passion for reading among rural children.
We are fostering love for books and reading. Eager to be part of the initiative, the children and Teachers supported our strategies and resources in offering wide range of learning experiences. The connection and network between the school, the community, and our Foundation will boost the learning and maximize the synergies.
Literacy is vital in creating assertive minds and empowering community. The schools and the children of rural Chhattisgarh are engaged with our efforts to build an inclusive reading program to promote literacy and academic engagement.
One of the challenges faced by the children in rural areas of the state is the paucity of fictional books to read. It is very expensive for the schools to procure fiction and non-fiction books for a library. Astitva Foundation has donated thousands of books for children to read. We have instituted libraries, kicked-off a ‘Read and Write’ campaign, and started reading clubs. The more children read, the better they write. We also provide training to the teachers on appropriately organizing and circulating the collections of books, thereby ensuring that every child receives a quality education. We hope to see these students be creative and author stories and become literati some day.
If you like to donate books, please contact us. Your support will ensure a brighter future for children in rural Chhattisgarh.
In the heart of rural landscapes lies the potent promise of transformation. It's in these humble settings that our tireless efforts weave the threads of change, one project at a time. Our literacy drive empowers communities through education. The initiative focuses on providing access to books, teaching resources, and educational support to underprivileged rural areas. Investing in education, we invest in the future of us all.
Since 2014, we at Astitva are committed to supporting girls in rural areas to ensure they succeed in school and beyond. Literacy campaign brings together the schools, the children and the entire community for sustainable development. Our literacy drives focus on cognitive development, enrichment of reading and writing skills, significance of economic empowerment, transformation of communities, and dividends of equitable quality education.
Literacy is one of the critical tools that can transform our community, lead to a prosperous economy, and stimulate meaningful lives. To achieve our literacy goals we continually encourage children by conducting an annual prize distribution ceremony to honour the top performing students in each class. This motivates children to continue learning and performing better each year.
