Abstract
The Anganwadi Transformation Project at Nasmed is a collaborative initiative undertaken as part of MICA’s rural immersion program in partnership with Yuva Unstoppable, a leading non-profit organization in India. This initiative aims to provide MICA students with experiential learning opportunities to engage with rural communities, understand challenges, and propose actionable, sustainable solutions. The project aligns with MICA’s mission to integrate academic rigor with social responsibility and Yuva Unstoppable’s vision to drive grassroots change by addressing gaps in education, health, and infrastructure.
Yuva Unstoppable has a proven track record of transforming over 330 Anganwadis and schools across India, with significant improvements in attendance, health outcomes, and learning environments. Their approach combines infrastructural upgrades, health interventions, and community engagement to create sustainable impact. Nasmed, a semi-rural village located 20 kilometers from Ahmedabad, was identified as the focus of this project due to its unique socio-economic dynamics and the potential for meaningful interventions within its educational and nutritional systems.
