Aga Khan Foundation

The Aga Khan Foundation is spearheading an initiative aimed at transforming education and empowering over 1,000 school dropout girls in Bihar. Recognizing the critical role of education in societal development and individual growth, the project seeks to address the high dropout rates among girls in Bihar.

The project’s approach is unique in that it leverages entrepreneurial opportunities as a means to achieve educational transformation. By identifying and analyzing these opportunities, the project aims to create sustainable solutions that not only address the immediate issue of school dropouts but also contribute to the overall socio-economic development of the region.

The expected outcome is a significant reduction in the number of school dropout girls in Bihar, with over 1,000 girls directly benefiting from the project. Through this initiative, the Aga Khan Foundation hopes to empower these girls, giving them the tools and opportunities they need to shape their own futures and contribute positively to their communities.

This project represents a significant step towards achieving educational equity and empowerment for girls in Bihar, ultimately contributing to the broader goal of gender equality and social development.
