The human mind is unique and diverse. Its progress and evolution are determined by a set of several factors such as early childhood development, especially education. It is the sad fortune of our society that we are still driven by common misconceptions and we often forget to prioritize the education in early stages of childhood.

In India, our public education falls behind in this regard. Our pre-school setups are not catering to the needs of the students as it supposed to be. These challenges are not only confined to the teaching pedagogies but extend to the entire environment. Education is a vast and in-depth term as it covers the whole spectrum of emotional and social aspects of an individual. Surprisingly, education from an early age is one of the inevitable components that can largely influence the brain development of the child. All the fundamental qualities, that define a human as an efficient person such as self-discipline, motivation, rational thinking, emotional intelligence, focus, etc are rooted in the first five years of life. The activities the students are involved in the early stages of their lives also play a crucial role in creativity, communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills. Early child education also makes the students explore of independence, socialization, and autonomy and gradually contributes to their sense of identity and stronger foundation for a good personality.

Reflecting on the potential and scope of interventions, NGOs in India have adopted different strategies to promote and deliver the best quality education in the early age of children. It encompasses, a wide range of initiatives and ideas such as enhancing the school environment and equipping them with sufficient study and playing materials. The quality of this in turn directly proportional to the ability of students to achieve their potential at its fullest. It can be incorporated through well-designed and structured syllabus NGOs and can be a great help for education considering this regard as it can flexibly intervene and make a difference which we can say, is close to the concept of idealism. Education NGOs in India, through collaborative efforts and collective networks, is paving towards a better future of our nation.

To align with these goals, Aahwahan as an NGO has been contributing and implementing innovative strategies. As bounded and rooted to the core values, the NGO for education, particularly has created a very tangible and meaningful impact in the area of early child education. The team has adopted more than 187 Anganwadis and lower primary schools located in different parts of the nation. So far, the effort the team has invested impacted thousands of students, especially those who are from underprivileged backgrounds by igniting the spirit of knowledge and motivating them to study and explore while making them capable of the outside world. Being one of the best educational NGOs in India, Aahwahan’s is mission to make more significant and enduring results in the areas. Thriving in the areas of holistic development, the NGO is fulfilling its vision and goal by making education more vibrant, colorful, engaging, and interesting, while preparing the deprived students with quality and impeccable school environments from the early level classes to PUC all across the nation.

Education is undeniably, the core and code to unveil the world, and it is the United partnership and active strategic planning involvement of NGOs can do wonders in this regard.
