OUR VISION

A world where every child develops
a love of lifelong learning.

Since 2012, we've reached 200,000 teachers and 6 million children across India and Uganda.

OUR REASON

Education systems today must prepare every child, everywhere, to thrive in a world of ‘unknown unknowns’.

Why Lifelong Learning?

Children and young people today face a world of 'unknown unknowns'.

The world is undergoing rapid changes – socially, economically and technologically. To succeed, children and young people will need to develop a love of learning. And education systems need to support them by building the foundations of lifelong learning.

WHAT WE DO

Reigniting intrinsic motivation.

We believe that the most sustainable way to build the foundations of lifelong learning is by reigniting intrinsic motivation at all levels of an education system. We support governments to employ practical strategies that promote positive behaviours in teachers and officials. And in turn, these build the foundations of lifelong learning in children.

OUR LEARNING

Understanding our impact.

Developing a love of lifelong learning in all children requires systems to prioritise intrinsic motivation. Our measurement framework helps us understand the impact we’re making at all levels of an education system. And we openly share our findings with the wider sector so other interventions can benefit from more intrinsically motivated teachers, officials and students.
