About Pratham’s Digital Innovation Unit
Pratham Digital has produced over 10000 videos and 500 learning games in the last few years. These resources can be viewed on www.prathamopenschool.org
These resources have been deployed and monitored in many rural and urban communities. With each passing year, this repository of content – videos, games, stories, and applications has grown to cater to the interests and engagement of children.
Translating videos into 14 regional languages helped us become relevant and accessible to learners in all states. Moving forward we are planning to create a mass dissemination mechanism where youth and children will get exposure to improve their creativity, collaboration, curiocity and critical thinking. In this effort to make engaging content reach learners across India, Pratham has been actively collaborating with youth-driven start-ups, content creators and interest groups.
