There are lot of non profits and NGOs work in education sector. Majority of them work in areas like teacher training, curriculum building, parent engagement but a vey few them work towards bringing back play to school. These days play in playgrounds has become a rare reality. Today, I talk to Pooja Rai of Anthill Creations, an organisation which is working towards solving this problem by building playgrounds in schools and communities. Anthill Creations is a not for profit organisation which aims to bring back play for all age groups by building sustainable playscapes, using contextual designs and localized resources and encouraging community participation.
