Why Unmukt Learning Centre?
Picture this: You are a child who wants to learn, but your world does not allow it. Your home is too small, too unstable. You wake up to responsibilities beyond your age. School should be a refuge, a place where you can dream freely, but instead, it comes with conditions—you must afford it, you must have time, you must be "smart enough." What happens to the children who do not meet these conditions? Do they stop learning? Do they stop dreaming?
For children of Bhubaneswar, this is not a hypothetical situation—it is their reality. Education is the first thing they lose when survival takes priority. Some are forced into child labor, others are trapped in unstable homes, and many, especially girls, are expected to abandon their education before they even understand its power. The pandemic deepened these struggles, pushing more children into uncertainty, where learning became a distant luxury instead of a right.
Despite this, there are limited interventions that focus on foundational learning alongside emotional and creative development—a gap that Unmukt Learning Centre exists to fill.
