I am excited to be part of the Saamarthya team to learn more about how teachers can be effective in creating inclusive spaces for children. Saamarthya cares about the whole child. The organization works from a philosophy that inclusion is about changing systems to be responsive, rather than asking children to adjust to fit rigid systems. I am excited to be a strategic advisor to share lessons I have learned through research and practice and to engage with the Saamarthya executive and advisory teams.
