Ananya Children's Creativity Centre
Our Children's Creativity Centre opened in L.R. Nagar in March of 2020.
Global Concern India (GCI) through its flagship program The Schooling Project, works to promote and encourage scholastic education among children from especially marginalized and vulnerable communities in our society, including children rescued and those-at-risk of being trafficked, children forced to labour, beg and school dropouts.
Global Concerns India (GCI) facilitates an 'after-school-sessions' called 'Assisted Learning Program', that augments scholastic education. The sessions are conducted inside the govt. aided schools premises and at the Centre in a slum (L.R.Nagar). This involves endorsing and elevating competencies of children and young people on creativity, critical thinking, ability to organize, social and communication skills, adaptability, problem-solving, ability to cooperate on a democratic basis, and actively promote interactions that are respectful and dignified. A team of volunteer Mentors conduct scholastic and life-long learning sessions for children.
Children's Creativity Centre-The land for the was purchased with funds raised in 2011 by friends of GCI who organized a Golf Tournament, at the Banglore Golf Club. In 2018 the Southern Lodge of Freemasons stepped up with the funds needed for constructing the building itself.
The Global Concerns Trust and Basis Education Foundation (Basis) funded doors, windows, electrical wiring, and sanitary fittings, tiles for the first floor.
GCI is runs the Basis Digital Ethical Literacy Unit at CCC. The goal is to facilitate children and youth between the ages of 8-18 digital skills and the wisdom needed to integrate the technology of our times into their thinking and decision-making.
