100,000 Minds, One Mission: Art of Living’s Schools Spark Tribal Transformation

In a bold stride toward educational equity, The Art of Living Foundation has revolutionized tribal education in India through its expansive network of free schools. What began in 1999 with just 12 students in Jharkhand has blossomed into a movement that now educates over 100,000 children in 1,327 schools across 2,032 villages. This initiative, led by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, blends ancient wisdom with modern pedagogy to uplift marginalized communities and redefine the future of tribal youth.
