Building empathetic citizenship starts from disseminating constitutional and civic values, which is why The Equals Projects has built its mission and objectives on a strong foundation of teaching. From creating course material to hosting unique events, our activities are directed to impact a diverse audience that can benefit from understanding “the story of India today.” 

Our goal is to help students get a first-hand view of the nuances of nation building and devise creative, inclusive solutions. With a pedagogy geared toward building skills and values, The Equals Project consciously transforms learning environments into inclusive spaces that encourage students to think from different perspectives and understand the varied experiences of what it means to be a “Citizen of India”.

The 4 pillars of our teaching

Some of our teaching offerings

Our course offerings are highly specialized in structure, content and delivery to meet each cohort’s unique interests and needs, and are built in close collaboration with our partners. Depending on the age of the cohort, our offerings vary in length, intensity and depth. 

For School Students

For Young Adults and Working Professionals

For Universities

For Institutions

We offer short courses, summer programs and weekend workshops introducing key political and legal concepts for high school, and middle school students. Our courses place an emphasis on soft skills. We also integrate though experiments, and simulations like a mock constitution assembly to make learning fun!

We organize long form online programs, and weekend certifications for professionals. We also administer intensive skill focused courses on negotiation, as well as weekend workshops on topics of interest like fundamental rights for politically active citizens!

We offer intensive long-form courses as part of university curriculum for public policy, and law students. These courses are centered around debates, deliberations, and drafting exercises, optimized for learners to acquire soft skills like empathy, and hard skills like analysis along with course content. We also organize also crash courses, exploring ideas of justice, constitution making, and nation building for students from a non-legal background.

We work closely with our partner institutions to develop and deliver courses differing in length and intensity – from hands-on activities, and simulations for a younger audience, summer programs, weekend courses and fellowships for young adults, to long-form courses and courses of special interest. Previously, we’ve offered courses to schools, universities, and social organizations!

Hear from our partners and students

‘Shruti and TEP have been handling the Constitutional Assembly Debates module for our 48 week PGP (Post Graduate Programme) in Public Policy at the Takshashila Institution. Over 4-5 sessions, students understand the various complexities of the constitution-making process through role-play, debates, and assignments, reflecting the creative aspect of the pedagogy’s design. A passionate delivery of a significant historical event.’

Malathi Renati Head of Policy, Takshashila Institution

‘We had the pleasure of collaborating with The Equals Project for our ‘We the People’ campaign, commemorating 75 years of the Indian Constitution. As part of our inter-school fest on 15 August, Shruti curated a model constituent assembly event for school students. The event was very well-organized, engaging, and thoroughly enjoyed by all participants. It added great value to our fest and we look forward to working together again.’

Leah Verghese Research Manager DAKSH

‘The session was incredibly engaging and thought provoking. The facilitator expertly guided us through discussions on the foundational principles of our country, Constituent Assembly, etc.
What resonated most was the conversation on equality, justice and equity, as well as the group activity which encouraged us to think beyond general perceptions.’

Nakshatra Kuviraa Ambassador

The summer course was insanely exciting! Stepping into the shoes of legends during the constituent assembly simulation was new, and extremely educational while being fun. We were always encouraged to deliberate, and were never judged for our opinions! It was very interesting to see people with different opinions and how they debated with one other, and how people compromised.
