Summary

JOSH was founded in 2006 with the aim of engaging youth to bring about positive change in the society and in their lives. JOSH works through field interventions in the slums where it engages with marginalized urban poor youth and other community members to improve delivery of quality education and youth development. Their programs are spread across four major areas: 1) Right To Education Act advocacy and making government schools transparent and accountable, 2) Running a learning centre in Trilokpuri for young women focussed on vocational skills, gender rights training and communication, 3) Conducting workshops and meetings to mobilize students and parents on improving the quality of education, 4) Mobilizing youth-led community- based social actions. JOSH believes in the principles of ‘action learning’ and ‘learning by doing’, where the youth are encouraged to understand their surroundings and address issues of governance by actively engaging with the issues.
