Join us for InvokED 4.0
on 7th and 8th March 2025
To invoke dialogues, ideas and collective action among different actors (government, civil society, markets, industry, academia, media) to ensure education equity in India. Together we will find the missing link that brings together the ecosystem for a lasting impact and ensure all our efforts are directed to build schools where our children are able to dream, learn and succeed.
Shikshagraha Awards
In every corner of India, there are unsung heroes who are shaping the future of our children and communities—our education leaders. They are the architects of change, working tirelessly to transform public schools, ignite young minds, and pave the way for a brighter tomorrow.
The Shikshagraha Awards, instituted by the Shibulal Family Philanthropic Initiatives celebrate the leaders who go above and beyond their roles to build an equitable and inclusive education ecosystem.
This is more than recognition; it’s a celebration of courage, vision, and the power of leadership.
Do you know an inspiring education leader who deserves to be recognised? Nominate them today!
