Our partnership with The Narrative Network has enabled us to share the Bharat EdTech Initiative’s story in an incredibly meaningful way. The initiative has reached 203k students across 17 states through 22 implementation partners and 16 funding organisations – and The Narrative Network team has deftly managed to communicate the tremendous scale of this impact in a manner that centres the initiative’s students and their experiences at the heart of all narratives.
The Amazing Happens Here Campaign in particular, has brought the stories and voices from the ground to life in a thoughtful manner – underscoring the importance of the human elements behind successful EdTech adoption. In handing over the mic to students, their parents, grandparents, teachers, and our on-ground teams, The Narrative Network team has helped us get a true sense of the Bharat EdTech Initiative’s significance and impact – all while giving us much food for thought! The creativity and authenticity brought to this campaign is incredible and we’re so glad to have found partners in The Narrative Network.
