Isolated villages 14,000 feet above sea level, completely cut off for half the year, have stayed beyond the reach of secular teaching. But now Pragya, an NGO operating with help from British funding, is helping to create classrooms here for the first time. The children of the Changpa nomads are also sitting down to lessons for the first time in canvas classrooms, which can move with them across the mountains. Teachers and managers are trained within the community to overcome the shortage of staff willing to work there. The problem of supplying power is also being solved by harnessing the wind and sun. These projects demonstrate that the Education For All Millennium Development Goal of universal primary education can be achieved even with these genuinely "hard to reach" communities. 530 Previously released as DVD. 546 This edition in English. 650 0 Education |zIndia. |=^A55845 650 0 Career development. |=^A194602 650 0 Multicultural education. |=^A326281 655 7 Instructional television programs. |2lcgft 710 2 Maverick Television (Television network), |eproduction company. |=^A1165036 776 0 |cOriginal publisher catalog number |oC/3666/001 856 40 |uhttps://go.openathens.net/redirector/ecu.edu?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1781911 910 KF 2014-07-23 941 1004321238 944 1781911 |c1781911 905 |uadmin 945 The Whole World 949 Click on web address |wasis |hjoyner103 |ojjlm 949 Click on web address |wasis |hhsl110 |ojjlm 950 EDIV |cEDTV-BF |cEDIV-V1 901 ASP1781911/ediv |bVaAlASP |c33283 |tbiblio 596 1 4 998 5273898
