Projects We Support
Urban Learning Center (ULC)
Pratham’s ULC identifies out-of-school, at risk and academically behind children and seeks to enroll them in the local municipal school while simultaneously enrolling them in their neighborhood ULC. This dual enrollment ensures that these children receive the additional support needed for them to follow and keep up with their respective grade curriculum. ULCs are also open to children who are already enrolled in school but who are struggling and need extra help with their school curriculum. ULC’s extention activities reach out to children any youth in neighborhod communities and government schools to conduct classes and learning camps for a much larger group of children which need additional assistance in learning.
Support Dates: March, 2013 – March, 2015
