In an ideal scenario, the journey of a child begins in a classroom and culminates in a workplace. In school, the child acquires a solid foundational education, which equips her years later for a good job. That is the popular picture of success.
However, in reality, the journey has many pitfalls. Some never make it to school. Many drop out once they arrive. And even those that graduate are often not seen as job-ready. How is the gap between education and employability to be bridged? We speak to experts involved at every step of this journey: Safeena Husain (Founder, Educate Girls), Rukmini Banerji (CEO, Pratham), Jigyasa Labroo (Founder, Slam Out Loud), Shreyasi Singh (Founder, Harappa) and Sundar Mahalingam (President – Strategy, HCL and Shiv Nadar Foundation).
