A 'Be the Change Project' incubated by three Teach for India fellows to bridge the gap between policy and implementation in the fields of education and health.We are working to bring in a homogenous framework so that the gap between policy and implementation gets reduced in the field of education and health sectors. Our work model is centered around building sustainable communities by providing them with knowledge and skills to access welfare schemes and policies available to them. To facilitate this sustainability across the communities, we also aim to equip our educators, in collaboration with the global Teach for All network, with knowledge pieces around these policies.

HumHongeKaamayaab aims to achieve 100% COVID-19 vaccination for under-resourced, marginalised and vulnerable communities in India.We believe in providing holistic support for the range of issues faced by society in getting vaccinated efficiently, such as widespread misinformation and exclusion. Our models are based on covering an end-to-end solution that begins with identifying the concerns of specific community members via direct channels, effectively distributing verified and directed information collaterals, and finally helping the willing populations in getting access to both doses of the vaccination through a dedicated team of volunteers and community influencers that are provided extensive expert and technical training.
