NEW DELHI: To give socially and economically marginalised communities a chance to access information on government scholarships, the Aga Khan Foundation has published a directory on financial support schemes for school education in the country.
The directory, “Scholarships and Financial Assistance Schemes for School Education in India”, has been published in the interest of a large number of eligible and deserving children who are unable to take advantage of these schemes because they do not know about them.
“Even schools and education officials are not well informed on details about scholarships. The result has been under-utilisation of these scholarships and allocated budgets,” says AKF CEO Rowland Roome.
