Verified real NGO

Builds daily social-emotional wellbeing curricula into public school systems across India

Labhya Foundation works with state governments to embed social and emotional learning (SEL) into the daily timetable of public schools, rather than treating wellbeing as an add-on activity. Its best-known product, co-created with the Delhi government, is the Happiness Curriculum, a daily period of mindfulness and SEL exercises now running in Delhi's government schools from nursery through class 8. Labhya has since extended similar SEL programming into Uttarakhand and other states through direct partnerships with education departments. The organisation trains government teachers to deliver the curriculum themselves so the program survives independent of Labhya's own staff. It positions its work as addressing learning readiness — the belief that children who are not emotionally regulated cannot absorb academic instruction effectively.
