This Republic Day, we reaffirm our commitment to the constitutional promise of dignity, equality, and education—reaching every child in the remote frontiers villages of the Indian Himalayas. 🇮🇳

On a sunny afternoon in the mountains, a small circle forms on the school courtyard floor. As children come closer and open their books, their worlds grow larger, and imaginations travel far.

On Indian Army Day, we salute the Indian Army for its courage and service.

Working in remote Himalayan regions, we witness how the Army’s presence enables security, disaster response, and access development in the most isolated communities.

Thank you for your service.

In Nimoo, a village located at 10,300 ft above sea level, our facilitators led a reading session that sparked both imagination and creativity. One child chose to draw the character he loved most—showing how stories can move from the page into personal expression.

The 17000 ft team is currently on a field reconnaissance across schools in Arunachal Pradesh.

These journeys help us design interventions that are realistic and rooted in local contexts. Because education in remote regions begins long before a classroom is set up.
