*Uttarakhand’s 10 year-old Deepak was outraged by the intended forced marriage of 15 year-old Sarika
*Jharkhand principal Muhammad struggled with low school attendance
*Rajasthani children were distressed by water wastage in their village
*Mumbai teacher Mona was concerned that rote methods neither served her students, nor addressed learner variability/inequities, leading to an uncertain future
*Tara was increasingly worried about the negative effects of digital media addiction on her son
1.2billion children live in poverty, often worsened by climate change (UNICEF; Save The Children).
By 2030, 800million children will lack skills needed to thrive. Quality education is unequally distributed, impacted by income, culture & geography, worsened by access issues & climate change (World Economic Forum).
Globally, there is a shortage of curriculums that prepare children for the future. Current education policies require emphasis on fostering wellbeing & vital skills (Brookings Policy2020).
Many life skills programs ignore climate change, digital wellbeing & agency development & exclude the poorest. They require costly human resources, travel, meetings & computers, or are one-off workshops. None of this is scalable or sustainable.
Edtech solutions focus on technology rather than human-centric educational problems.
Overburdened teachers struggle with wellbeing, impacting student success (schoolsweek.co.uk).
These widespread conditions maintain a vice-like grip on communities.

Initially our content was taught by teachers using physical books in workshops. After interviewing teachers, trainers & education specialists from different socioeconomic, geographical & cultural contexts, we learnt that our workshop model wasn't scalable, sustainable or impactful. This led us to the birth of SEEK, an iterative curriculum, to fit into a school schedule. We then developed an app for efficient, scalable delivery & measurement.
Learning from our communities, our app addressed the following:
*Lessons require time management & minimum teaching prep
*Content needs adaptation to context
*Must function offline
*Child-facing resources should be distributed in print, or on smart board/TV, if available
*Data collection & processes must be simple. Rangeet’s first impact reports took over 6 months, by Dhaka University team. Researchers conducted in-person interviews across Bangladesh. A consequence of this is the M&E tools built into our app, recognised by Brookings Institution as one of the top 3 apps globally for data collection & visualisation
*App must collect continuous feedback to enable timely decisions & adaptations
*A Search Function was developed to enable flexible/personalised teaching
*An AI chatbot will bring activities/resources to teachers in an adaptive, personalised manner
*Content must evolve to meet current needs
Our human-centric, learning engineering based approach ensures a flexible & adaptable approach to solving educational challenges.
