Mansi Kasliwal (VP, Social Initiative at BYJU’S) said that the collaboration and the strengths of all the stake holders is the key to the success of this mission so far.
Additionally, Mansi also mentioned that that BYJU’S Education for All is more than just a reaction to the pandemic, it is a well-thought and long-term mission to ensure that children from the underserved communities have equitable access to quality education.
Mathew Joseph (Country Director, AIF) said that AIF’s partnership with BYJU’S is helping them bridge the digital divide and bring EdTech-based education to the mainstream while also providing equal opportunities to children from socially and economically weaker sections of the society.
