| Project Name | Community Learning Centres |
| Amount Utilized (INR) | 40650 |
| Project Description | During the Coronavirus pandemic, when the schools were shut, our animators visited the remote villages in South Gujarat, organized the children and conducted environmental education programs. These activities were the only learning platform for the children in some of the villages where we work. In order the bridge the learning gap, we initiated CLC in ten villages.
The project team with the help of teaching volunteers and others successfully set up ten Community Learning Centres. Through CLC, the teaching volunteers have reached out to more than 1185 children during the 15 months of the project duration. The teaching volunteers focused on the foundation skills such as reading & writing. Later, through innovative activities, they were able to make children understand basic scientific, environmental and mathematical concepts.

| Impact | Ten teaching volunteers have been trained during the past 15 months through regular training programs to engage more than 1185 children in tribal and Dalit villages to bridge the learning gaps. GBT has also developed innovative modules which could be shared with like-minded NGOs working in a similar field. This project has been well appreciated by the stakeholders and received support from the community elders. Three of the CLCs have incorporated children's libraries with the support of the JCB Literature Foundation. |
