Who We Are
Basis equips at-risk youth with learning pathways, tools, and skills to improve their futures and create change in their communities after they graduate from high school.
Basis Learning Centres provide access to online curriculum, arts-based curriculum, mentors, vocational training, psycho-social support, and career guidance. These strands knit together create a foundation on which to stand and reach for dreams.
What We Do
We are currently establishing Basis Learning Centres in India with the support of local partners, and are open to considering sites elsewhere in the majority world in the future. If you're interested in exploring a partnership with us, do email life@basisindia.org.
