What is the Social Issue we are solving?
Most children in Government and low-income private schools do not have very high career aspirations. And a very very small percentage even know about the opportunities in space and space allied industries. Many people feel there is no point in introducing space technology and careers in space to children in Government schools because they do not have the potential and opportunities to aspire for it.
Who is the Solution For?
Children in Government schools and Low-income private schools.
Under-served Community where this solution can be Deployed
Government schools and Low income private schools
Sustainability of the Solution
This is a one time workshop-based solution. However, the impact of this can be extended by spacing out the space workshop though out the academic year, and kindling the interest of the children through planetarium visits, space exhibitions etc
We also set up space labs in Government schools to provide continued space technology education to the children. These labs
can be shared by multiple schools.
Expected Outcome of the Solution
Children slowly begin to develop interest in space technology and careers in space related industries. They also understand what courses they can choose in order to land up in these careers. Girl children get motivated by other women in space. Children start following news and online channels related to space and space technology.
