We are continually looking for talented and motivated individuals interested in the area of education to work with us on our journey towards social change.

Working at the Foundation

The Foundation offers the unique opportunity to combine professional growth with social commitment and purpose.

You will be engaging with a talent pool of passionate and highly qualified members.

Experience an environment of high diversity where people from different backgrounds, cultures and domains of expertise are united by a common purpose.

Indulge in a culture of learning reading, reflecting and engaging with ideas in education and development.

We believe building knowledge through research is critical, but this must be deeply rooted in practical ground realities for applicability. We provide the opportunity to apply theoretical principles in the practical testbed.

Working on the ground is a value for us we also believe in theorizing the practices. Creating knowledge out of work is something our members live day in and day out.

Field

At the Field we are looking for teachers and resource persons who can work with us to improve the quality of teaching and learning processes within government schools. Our work not only includes working on school subjects like Mathematics, Science, Social Sciences and Languages (English/ Hindi/Kannada/Tamil) but addressing some of the fundamental beliefs about education and society. A potential employee will be interested in all aspects of k-12 education including:

• Improving the quality of educational processes and practices within schools across a district through capacity building of teachers, head teachers, resource persons, and education functionaries

• Designing and facilitating creative approaches to teaching and learning through in their chosen subject

• Building networks of like-minded teachers and head teachers working in the same subject area

• Residing at blocks where government schoolteachers reside and hence use the advantage of proximity

Over and above professional competencies, we are looking for individuals with the following attributes:

• Strong belief in constitutional values

• Deep commitment towards social change

• Being analytical and rational

• Respect for others

• Patience and resilience to work for long-term goals

• Ability to function in a team

Since we work primarily with government rural schools, potential employees should be willing to reside and work in remote locations across the states.

Health

We have initiated work in the area of Health for underserved communities in select geographies. We started with urban low-income settlements in Bangalore in 2021 and extending to Dharamjaigarh in Raigarh, Chhattisgarh in 2022.

In Bangalore we have our own Health Centres located in vulnerable low-income settlements, and provide out-patient services and engage in community health work in collaboration with public health systems.

In Dharamjaigarh, Raigarh we are beginning work with the Public Health System to strengthen Primary Health at the community level to start with. We will work with the existing Primary Health Centres and the associated Sub-Centers/ Health & Wellness Centers to support the delivery of services to the community.

Philanthropy

At the Philanthropy, we make multi-year grants to not-for-profit organizations who work with the most vulnerable in our society. Through such support, people who are deeply disadvantaged and marginalized are offered immediate care, access to essential services, and the possibility of a dignified future.

Our teams in each area focus on developing an understanding of the issues and building partnerships towards a common set of goals. We systematically engage with our partner organizations and communities to reflect and learn, with an aim to improve the lives of these communities.
