Through its partner, the India Literacy Mission, IHF worked towards the goal of “Making India Totally Literate” which is in alignment with the Government of India’s Education for All initiative. The program empowers non-literate adults from marginalized communities with basic reading and writing skills.

Detailed below are the specifications of the implementation models, monitoring frameworks, and the resulting impact on the program:

  • Vidya Model (Each One Teach Many): It is a centre-based model. A community teacher (Akshar Sathi) conducts 60 sessions with a group of 30+ adult learners.
  • Diksha Model (Each One Teach One): Student volunteers from schools teach one adult from their community, using IHF’s structured learning kits.
  • Learner progress is systematically monitored through a centralized digital portal that captures attendance, assessment outcomes, and photographic documentation, ensuring transparency and accountability across all adult literacy centres.
  • Over 300,000 adults have become literate through these efforts.
