We ran a month long camp in Nagpur & rural Nagpur aimed at developing emotional intelligence and social skills in students and teachers. It started from Katol on 21-01-2019 from Nagar Parishad School and Banarasidas Ruiya school, Katol. Our work has Impacted more than 300 students of Katol. In this regard, an NGO named "Light Up" from Delhi came to Katol for an initiative by Dr. Vikas mahatme (M.P Rajya Sabha) brought by UMANG FOUNDATION with Skill Partner, PRAVINYA HUB & Youth Partner, THE YOUNG JUNCTION CAREERS. Nagar Parishad Katol greatly helped this cause.
In India, su***de and depression is the leading cause of deaths in the 15-39 year age group.There is a need to recognise the role of social and emotional well-being in the over all development of individuals and this should start from our school education.
Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the process through which children and adults acquire and effectively apply the knowledge, attitude, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions.
UMANG educational and multipurpose society, in collaboration with BEYOND IQ will work together to advocate the need for a "centre of emotional intelligence" and a social emotional learning curriculum in all levels of education.
