Welcome to Akshar Se Avsar Tak, a podcast by The Good Sight, where we explore critical questions around Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN).In this episode, we focus on “Assessing Learning Right and Respecting Children’s Pace.” Our guest, Sanjay Tiwari, State Manager (Uttar Pradesh) at Language and Learning Foundation (LLF), shares insights from his work with government primary schools to strengthen FLN at the foundational level.The conversation challenges our reliance on exam results to judge children’s learning and examines whether current assessment practices truly capture how children learn. We also discuss the vision of NEP 2020, especially its emphasis on allowing children to learn at their own pace, and how much space today’s school systems give to this approach.Drawing from on-ground experience, the episode highlights how strong foundational learning shapes children’s thinking, curiosity, and independence, while also reflecting on the strengths and challenges of NEP 2020 in the context of FLN.At its core, this episode reinforces a simple idea: meaningful learning begins when we assess children thoughtfully and respect their pace.CreditsGuest: Sanjay TiwariHost: Shreya MResearch: Alisha CProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#FLN #AksharSeAvsarTak #FoundationalLearning #NEP2020 #EarlyLearning #LanguageLearningFoundation

Welcome to Akshar Se Avsar Tak, a podcast by The Good Sight.In Episode 2, we turn our focus to घर और स्कूल की भूमिका (The Role of Parents & Teachers) in strengthening Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN).Our guest, Poornima Garg, Country Director, Room to Read India, shares practical insights on how parents and teachers together can build strong early learning foundations for children. The conversation explores the critical role parents play in supporting FLN at home, even when time or formal teaching methods feel out of reach. We also discuss how early-grade teachers can use simple, engaging classroom activities to nurture reading, numeracy, and comprehension skills.The episode reflects on a common concern raised by many parents—that they want to help but don’t always know how. Poornima Garg offers easy, realistic ways families can integrate FLN into everyday routines, without pressure or rote methods. The discussion further highlights the importance of a shared school–family approach, where both work in partnership to create consistent, meaningful learning experiences for children.At its core, this episode reinforces a simple idea: when homes and schools work together, children gain not just academic skills, but also confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning that lasts beyond the classroom.CreditsGuest: Poornima GargHost: Shreya MResearch: Alisha CProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#FLN #AksharSeAvsarTak #EarlyLearning #ParentsAndTeachers #RoomToRead #FoundationalLearning

Welcome to Akshar Se Avsar Tak, a podcast by The Good Sight.In this episode, we explore the basics of Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN) and why it matters so much in a child’s learning journey.Our guest, Professor Indrani Bhaduri, CEO of PARAKH and Head, Educational Survey Division, NCERT (Ministry of Education), explains FLN in simple terms. We discuss why NEP 2020 calls FLN a national priority, what happens when this foundation is weak, and why meaningful learning is more important than rote learning.The conversation also looks beyond subjects to show how FLN shapes a child’s confidence, communication, and future opportunities.CreditsGuest: Prof Indrani BhaduriHost: Shreya MResearch: Alisha CProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#FLN #NEP2020 #AksharSeAvsarTak #EarlyLearning

Education has the power to transform lives.Yet across the world, millions of children still grow up without access to learning that truly unlocks their potential.While every country faces its own realities, the aspiration remains universal: that no child’s future should be limited by where they are born. From overcrowded classrooms to systemic inequities, the challenge of educational access is global—and so must be the response.This is where movements like Teach For All step in—bringing together Teach For India and more than 60 partner organizations worldwide, united by a shared commitment to educational equity.In Episode 3 of The Education Revolution—the final chapter of our special three-part series—we return to our conversation with Shaheen Mistri, Founder and CEO of Teach For India.In this episode, we widen the lens—looking beyond borders to understand what education can become when the world learns together.We explore:What challenges children face that are universal—and what remains deeply localWhat India can learn from global education systems, and what the world can learn from IndiaHow education must evolve if it is to prepare young people not just to succeed, but to lead changeWhat true global collaboration in education could look likeAnd what the classroom of the future might tell us about whether this education revolution has truly arrivedThis is a conversation about reimagining learning as a shared human responsibility—one that transcends geography, systems, and silos.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Shaheen MistriResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#EducationRevolution #TeachForAll #TeachForIndia #GlobalEducation #EdEquity #EducationForAll #TheGoodSight

Education can change a child’s life.But in India, access to quality education is still far from equal.Millions of children are locked out of classrooms—not because they lack talent or ambition, but because opportunity never reaches them. According to the 2011 Census, 8.4 crore children between the ages of 5 and 17 are out of school. And for many, that absence shapes the rest of their lives.This is where movements like Teach For India emerge—stepping into the gaps where systems fall short, and working to ensure that where a child is born does not determine how far they can go.In Episode 2 of The Education Revolution, our special three-part series, we continue the conversation with Shaheen Mistri, Founder and CEO of Teach For India.In the previous episode, we traced Shaheen’s personal journey. In this episode, we shift focus to what came next: the making of Teach For India.We explore:What “educational equity” truly means in a country as unequal as IndiaThe moment Shaheen realised Teach For India could grow beyond a small initiativeThe challenge of balancing scale with quality in education reformWhether India is moving fast enough to bring every child into schoolThe role—and limits—of technology in addressing educational inequityThis is a conversation about building systems that serve children better, the courage required to think big, and the hard, often invisible work of sustaining change over time.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Shaheen MistriResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#TeachForIndia #EducationReform #EducationForAll #EdEquity #TFIMovement #TheGoodSight #EducationRevolution

We often speak about cities through the lens of development—smart infrastructure, growth, progress.But our conversations rarely reach the places where most urban residents actually live—informal settlements, low-income communities, bastiyaan.Here, water is not a basic service.It’s a daily struggle.A toilet is not just infrastructure.It’s about dignity.And a home is more than a roof—it is safety, stability, and resilience.Climate change, extreme heat, water scarcity, sanitation—in reports, these are numbers.On the ground, they are lived realities.And yet, some of the most practical solutions to these challenges come from the very people whose voices are least heard—local communities, and especially women.In this episode, we bring those voices to the centre.We sit down with Bharati Bhonsale, who has spent over 25 years working on housing, water, and sanitation in urban poor settlements, leading large-scale initiatives with Mahila Housing Trust across Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Maharashtra.Joining her is Pratibha Sunil Choudhary, a resident of Amalner’s Bengali File slum, a Community Action Group (CAG) leader, and a Vikasini and Paryavaran Sakhi with MHT—turning lived experience into collective action.This conversation explores how climate resilience is built from the ground up, how women emerge as city-makers, and why the future of our cities depends on listening to those who have long been unheard.Because real urban transformation doesn’t begin in policy papers—it begins in communities that refuse to be invisible.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuests: Bharati Bhonsale, Pratibha Sunil ChoudharyResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at ⁠contact@thegoodsight.org⁠#UrbanResilience #ClimateJustice #WomenLead #InclusiveCities #MahilaHousingTrust #TheGoodSight #GroundUpChange

Education in India isn’t just about schools, classrooms, or textbooks.It’s about possibility.It’s about whether a child is seen, heard, and given the chance to imagine a different future.And yet, for millions of children across the country, quality education still slips through the cracks—not because they lack talent or potential, but because the systems around them fail to create opportunity. It’s a gap we’ve lived with for far too long. But every once in a while, someone chooses to challenge that gap.In this special three-part series, The Education Revolution, we sit down with Shaheen Mistri—Founder and CEO of Teach For India, and one of the most influential voices shaping the future of learning in India.What began as a young woman’s decision to return to Mumbai at 18 has since grown into one of the country’s most powerful education movements. From the early days of Akanksha to building Teach For India into a nationwide force, Shaheen’s work reminds us that real change begins with empathy, courage, and an unwavering belief in every child’s potential.In this first episode, we trace her journey back to where it all began.We explore:What inspired her to work with children in low-income communitiesThe stark realities of education she witnessed in Mumbai’s slumsThe early struggles and defining moments that shaped AkankshaThe lessons she learned from children that transformed her approach to leadershipWhat continues to motivate her after more than three decades in the sectorThis is a story about purpose, persistence, and the quiet power of showing up—day after day—for children who deserve every opportunity to thrive.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Shaheen MistriResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#TeachForIndia #EducationReform #EducationForAll #EdEquity #TFIMovement #TheGoodSight #EducationRevolution

Hunger in India isn’t just a problem of empty plates.It’s a problem of broken systems.Every single day, cities discard tonnes of perfectly edible surplus food—while families in the same neighbourhood skip meals, stretch rations, or head to work on an empty stomach. It’s a contradiction we’ve normalised.And perhaps the most heartbreaking part?Hunger is invisible.People who need help rarely ask.People who want to help often don’t know where to begin.In this episode, we bring you a story that cuts through the noise with a solution that’s simple, dignified, and quietly transformative.We’re joined by Dr. Issa Fathima Jasmine—dentist-turned-changemaker and the founder of The Public Foundation, the force behind India’s community fridge movement, Ayyamittu Unn.What began as a single fridge placed in a public space has grown into a nationwide ecosystem rooted in dignity, sharing, and collective responsibility. Dr. Issa’s work proves that fighting hunger doesn’t always require grand infrastructure—it just needs systems that bring people together.We explore:Why hunger in India is less about food scarcity and more about systemic gapsThe early fears, resistance, and social perceptions she battled while installing the first fridgeHow community fridges are kept safe, accountable, and running every dayHow stereotypes—like judging a woman by her saree—shape leadership, courage, and public perceptionHer vision for a “kindness curriculum” in schools, and what she believes every 10-year-old should learn about giving and receivingWhy dignity must be at the heart of any solution to hungerCreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Dr. Issa Fathima JasmineResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#CommunityFridges #AyyamittuUnn #HungerFreeIndia #FoodWaste #UrbanCompassion #SocialInnovation #TheGoodSight

We often talk about health through the lens of gyms, workouts, diets, and trends. But beneath all of this lies a simple, powerful truth:Good health begins with what we know about the food we eat.And that’s where nutrition literacy steps in.Nutrition literacy isn’t about memorising nutrients or counting calories.It’s about understanding food in a way that helps families make informed choices every single day—choices that influence how children grow, how communities stay healthy, and how we break cycles of poor nutrition at the grassroots.In this episode, we’re joined by two changemakers who are reimagining the way India understands food: Radhika Gupta and Amit Gupta, co-founders of the Foodshaala Foundation.Radhika brings deep experience in food, nutrition, and community access. Amit offers the lens of a teacher who has worked in low-income schools, witnessing how nutrition shapes learning, energy, and potential. Together, they’re building a movement that makes healthy eating simple, affordable, and empowering.We explore:• What nutrition literacy really means—and why India urgently needs it• The everyday barriers children face in schools when it comes to food and awareness• How myths around “healthy food is expensive” can be dismantled• The role schools and teachers can play in shaping lifelong eating habits• How junk food marketing is changing childhood diets—and what we can do about it• Why building a nutrition-aware generation is one of India’s strongest public health toolsIf you care about community health, child well-being, and how simple knowledge can transform the way we eat—this conversation is for you.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuests: Radhika Gupta & Amit GuptaResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#NutritionLiteracy #FoodshaalaFoundation #PublicHealth #ChildNutrition #HealthyCommunities #GrassrootsChange #SocialImpact #TheGoodSight

When we talk about a nation’s progress, one question reveals everything: How do we treat our daughters?Because the story of a girl child is often the story of society itself—its beliefs, its biases, and its hopes for the future.Across India, many families still hesitate to celebrate the birth of a daughter. Educational opportunities are uneven. Women’s financial independence is seen as optional, not essential.Yet, change is unfolding quietly—and powerfully—through individuals who believe that every girl deserves to be welcomed, educated, and empowered.This episode brings you the inspiring journey of Dr. Ebha Singh, founder of Nanhi Pari Foundation, an initiative that began with a simple yet profound act: celebrating the birth of a girl child.What started as a gesture of love has grown into a movement that supports mothers, nurtures daughters, strengthens education, and builds pathways for women’s financial independence—one family, one village, one girl at a time.We explore:The personal moment that inspired Dr. Ebha to start Nanhi Pari in 2021How celebrating newborn daughters can shift traditions, mindsets, and community cultureThe recognition from the Honourable Governor of Uttar Pradesh—and what it means for the movementThe biggest barriers to girls’ education today and how Nanhi Pari works to dismantle themHow income-generation tools like dairy support, mulching machines, and sewing machines are transforming women’s confidence and agencyA message of hope for parents and young listeners about embracing daughters as catalysts of progressCreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Dr. Ebha SinghResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#NanhiPari #GirlChildEmpowerment #WomenFirst #GenderEquality #EducateGirls #FinancialIndependence #SocialImpact #TheGoodSight

We often talk about education as grades, syllabi, and competitive exams—but beneath this narrow definition lies a much bigger truth.For millions of children in underprivileged communities, education isn’t just about learning outcomes. It’s about confidence. It’s about exposure. It’s about having someone who believes in your potential. And sometimes, it’s the single factor that determines whether a child merely survives or truly thrives.This is where Abhyudaya steps in.Founded by Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan’s SPJIMR, Abhyudaya is a community-driven initiative that pairs PGDM students with bright children—Sitaras—from low-income neighbourhoods in Mumbai’s K-West ward. Built on the ethos of “growing together,” the programme goes far beyond academics. It focuses on mentoring, emotional well-being, enrichment, and empowering families and communities to create lasting change.In this episode, we’re joined by Arati Nagaraj, Director of Abhyudaya, to explore how mentorship can transform both young lives and future leaders.We Explore:• Why Abhyudaya chose mentoring—not tutoring—as its core philosophy• How holistic support fuels confidence, aspiration, and resilience in children• The realities of inequality in Mumbai and the barriers children face every day• What it takes to build trust with communities and create long-term impact• The vision for Abhyudaya over the next decade, and what “growing together” truly meansIf you care about equitable education, community-led empowerment, and redefining what it means to nurture potential—this episode is for you.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Arati NagarajResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#Abhyudaya #HolisticEducation #MentorshipMatters #CommunityDevelopment #ChildEmpowerment #SPJIMR #EducationForAll #SocialImpact #TheGoodSight

Research often feels far from the realities of the classroom — but not at DEVI Sansthan.In this episode of “Learn With Dignity,” we’re once again joined by Dr. Sunita Gandhi to explore how DEVI turns evidence into action. From the principles behind the ALfA (Accelerating Learning for All) program to the mindful use of technology in low-resource settings, this conversation dives into what it truly means to translate research into real impact.We explore:• How research directly shapes DEVI’s approach to foundational literacy and numeracy• Evidence-based practices that are transforming early learning outcomes• The balance between theory, experimentation, and classroom feedback• Lessons from research findings that challenged existing assumptions• How technology can support—not replace—the human side of learningBecause change in education isn’t just about new ideas — it’s about proving what works, and making it work everywhere.About Learn With DignityA 5-part podcast series by The Good Sight and DEVI Sansthan, spotlighting bold ideas and transformative efforts in education.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Dr. Sunita GandhiResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#LearnWithDignity #EducationForAll #FoundationalLiteracy #TheGoodSight #DEVI #EvidenceBasedEducation #ResearchToAction

Lasting change in education doesn’t happen in isolation — it happens when people and institutions come together with a shared purpose.In this third episode of “Learn With Dignity,” we explore how DEVI Sansthan builds powerful partnerships that make large-scale transformation in foundational learning possible. From working hand-in-hand with governments to collaborating with organizations across India and beyond, DEVI’s approach shows that collective action is the real key to sustainable impact.We explore:• Why partnerships lie at the heart of DEVI’s mission• Stories of collaborations that helped scale change• Lessons learned from navigating challenges and red tape• What it really takes to align multiple stakeholders for one goal — better learning for every childBecause when it comes to transforming education, teamwork isn’t just important — it’s essential.About Learn With DignityA 5-part podcast series by The Good Sight and DEVI Sansthan, spotlighting bold ideas and transformative efforts in education.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Dr. Sunita GandhiResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#LearnWithDignity #EducationForAll #FoundationalLiteracy #TheGoodSight #DEVI #PartnershipsForChange

Education is often seen as a slow process, where children spend years learning to read, write, and count. But what if learning could be faster and simpler? What if children who have fallen behind could catch up within months instead of years?That’s what the ALfA (Accelerating Learning for All) program is making possible.In this second episode of "Learn With Dignity", we explore how ALfA challenges traditional classroom methods and proves that every child can learn with confidence when education is reimagined.We explore:• The shift in mindset that makes learning faster and joyful• How ALfA ensures real understanding instead of rote learning• Stories of children and communities where ALfA has made a difference• The challenges faced while expanding the program across regions• The responses—expected and surprising—that ALfA continues to receiveALfA reminds us that education doesn’t have to be slow or complex. With the right approach, learning can be accelerated for every child.About Learn With DignityA 5-part podcast series by The Good Sight and DEVI Sansthan, spotlighting bold ideas and transformative efforts in education.CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Dr. Sunita GandhiResearch: Alisha CArtwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at contact@thegoodsight.org#LearnWithDignity #EducationForAll #FoundationalLiteracy #TheGoodSight #DEVI #ALfA
