Pune Maharashtra, India Leadership For Equity Full time

Project Associate, Shikshak Mitra Project, PCMC

**About Leadership For Equity (LFE)**

Leadership For Skilled Education Foundation (branded as **Leadership For Equity,** LFE), is a non-profit (NGO) based out of Pune, Maharashtra.

We envision Public Education Systems That Refuse To Let Children Down

**APPROACH**: In our two-fold approach to change, we build the capacity of government system leaders and we influence system processes. In partnership with the local and state education bodies, we co-create programs that shift teaching-learning practices and improve student learning and well-being. This work coupled with our research and advisory support to influence policies, we hope to create an effective government education system.

Over the last 5 years, LFE has built the capacity of **2100+** system leaders, and **40,200+** teachers to impact **8 million** students across Maharashtra. Additionally, LFE has recently expanded its operations and started working in another 3 states of India including Haryana, Tripura & Andhra Pradesh. In **Maharashtra**, LFE works with **5 districts** (Pune, Nashik, Nagpur, Satara & Akola), **3 municipal bodies** (Pune MC, Pimpri Chinchwad MC & Nagpur MC) & 5 state level education bodies (School Education Dept, SCERT, Samagra Shiksha, Tribal Development Dept, & TRTI). In **Andhra Pradesh**, LFE works closely with the **Samagra Shiksha Office, SCERT & The World Bank **on a multi-year strategic project to improve the quality of learning across 26 districts of the State. And lastly in **Haryana & Tripura**, LFE works with **SCERTs** of both states in setting up targeted program management units (PMUs) to strengthen delivery of large-scale academic programs.

**BELIEF**: We believe Public Education Systems are the gatekeepers of social EQUITY, especially when India's 120 million poorest-of-the-poor children continue to go to government-run schools. A multi-layered, complex, and systemic problem of educational inequity, will require a solution rooted in the SYSTEMS CHANGE approach. We believe that a COLLECTIVE effort by forging partnerships with governments, like-minded philanthropists, corporates, donors, nonprofits and grassroot organisations will help bring scalable and sustainable social change.

**About Shikshak Mitra Project**:
Shikshak Mitra Project was launched in AY 2019 in partnership with the PCMC Education Department & Mantra For Change. Broad idea was to set up a group of mentors from teachers who will provide academic support to teachers and lead any professional development sessions for teachers.
