Equal Access to Opportunity

Education and employment

UWC alumnus Mudit Tyagi (UWC- USA) together with his wife Amy Karon (UWC-USA), devised a programme to help children in impoverished areas in India reach their first non subsistence job. The programme Equal Access to Opportunity’s first project is the Akshara programme at the Mahindra UWC of India.

The project aims to break the vicious cycle of poverty by providing supplementary education and support to students until they find their first non-subsistence employment opportunity.
