- Advocate their key issues that impact educational equity, and engage 3.5% of the population in the movement for educational equity
- Act collectively with their Alumni to learn about and address key issues in our regions.
Their work will only be completed when they have built a movement of leaders that is large enough to ensure that every child in India attains an excellent education.
They pride themselves on being a passionate, idealistic, mission-driven team of individuals. Were committed to learning and excellence in our roles, and to being deeply rooted in our core values.

The City Director (CD) plays a critical role in unleashing the potential and power of a local movement for educational equity in this metropolis. This individual creates and shapes a vision for the city that is rooted in the local context and develops a long-term strategy that will fully realise the regional vision. The City Director, therefore, has a five-fold charge:
1. Ensuring that Delhi's Fellows are not only driving transformational outcomes for children in classrooms but that they are growing as leaders.
2. Fostering a local, growing Alumni movement that is committed to providing all children with an excellent education.

To achieve that five-fold charge, the CD works closely with the local program team to create an ecosystem of support for Fellows that enables them to be successful in their roles as teachers and future leaders of the movement. The CD also works to foster a sense of community among Alumni in the city and mobilises them towards shared goals, while also building partnerships with a range of government, corporate, and civil society players to catalyse systemic impact and ensure the long-term sustainability of our efforts. Last but not least, the CD plays an integral role in building the capability and commitment of members of the Delhi City Operations team to contribute to our mission in the long-term.
