Open Links Foundation

Open Links Foundation works to improve the quality of education in government schools at scale, on the view that low teacher motivation and weak programme implementation — not spending or teacher qualifications — are the binding constraints. Headquartered in Wanwadi, Pune, it runs the Vinoba platform, which connects teachers to their peers, recognises and motivates them, and gives district administrators data and tools, alongside digitised assessments, on-site district support and back-office IT, data and content support.

Open Links Foundation reports the following, on its own site:

• 5,400,000+ students reached
• 230,000+ teachers reached
• 71,000+ schools reached
• Present in 41 districts
