Slam Out Loud
Slam Out Loud uses the arts — theatre, poetry, storytelling and visual art — to build what it calls Creative Confidence in children aged 6 to 17 from disadvantaged communities: communication, critical thinking and empathy. Professional artists are placed in classrooms through the Jijivisha Fellowship, while Arts For All and Voice For All carry the same curriculum over low-tech channels such as WhatsApp and interactive voice response, so children without devices or reliable connectivity are not left out. Registered as Foundation of Arts For Social Change, a Section 8 company based in Kalkaji, New Delhi.
Slam Out Loud reports the following, on its own site:
- 50,000 children reached directly
- 950 villages
- 100 artists engaged
- 4.7 million children reached through the Arts For All COVID-19 response
