Dream a Dream is an Indian non-profit organisation working to transform the experience of education for the 130 million children living in poverty in India. Our aim is to change the purpose of education towards the idea of Thriving for every child. Since 1999, Dream a Dream has mainstreamed life skills as a critical approach to help children overcome adversity and learn to thrive. Today, the organisation is transforming the Indian education ecosystem through its own programmes, through curriculum and pedagogical innovations and through the development of holistic assessment frameworks while also shifting the narratives around the purpose of education. Dream a Dream’s work is spread across 6 Indian states, reaching over 5 million children through strategic partnerships with state governments and collaborations with other non-profits and funders in India.
