Anxiety anonymous with @pause_family : I remember near my house in Delhi, a friend's father used to go for alcohol anonymous sessions. Later, he opened up and shared how the group has helped him personally and he loves the community.

ASER just released a survey of learning levels in Karnataka and results are shocking, especially for lower grades - e.g. %f std 5 students who can read std 2 text fell from 46% to 34%. Sadly, learning loss likely higher in other states. 1/2

Why are foundational learning levels low in India and how can we improve them? Our report answers this critical question. Read more here: https://t.co/Oo19bqH0Cu
We need to better understand the expectations that teachers have of students. Read about it in my piece with @niharika16gupta of @CSF_India where present results from the latest @gschoolleaders survey & borrow heavily from work done by @shwetlena, @PsychRabble , and many others
6 out of 10 children are unable to access or attend digital classes regularly in India. School lockdowns have hampered access to education across the country.
How can we ensure our children don't stop learning?

Is there any cogent & generous explanation to persist with a centralized tech platform for vaccine allocation, when clearly all feedback is pointing to elite capture & exclusion of vulnerable families? Why are we by design excluding people? Aren't all lives equal?
Don’t be shocked. This is the reality of our vaccine governance if people that sit in Ivory towers design in. If you don’t have a smart phone or don’t know how to book online your chances of getting vaccine are as good as our politicians prioritising people over politics.
@srajagopalan@ATabarrok@srajagopalan could you highlight how India's current vaccination approach only caters to the elite? Everyone is expected to book appointments on the cowin app. In cities like Delhi no walk ins are allowed at centres. This will have dangerous implications
Our current vaccination program excludes those who need it the most. Not everyone has access to smartphones to register on cowin. Governments should allow walk ins and in person registration at centres @AtishiAAP@raghav_chadha@msisodia@SatyendarJain@AamAadmiParty
“For any country, a successful vaccination drive is where people who need a vaccine, get the vaccine."
