Disrupting literacy at scale through open source groundbreaking new processes

Another model for DEVI’s work is to partner with local community members themselves in building a movement to spread literacy. In Kurauni village, over 150 women have become literate through classes run by volunteers from within the village itself. This model is powerful in that it requires few outside resources, and is driven by the community members themselves. Village literacy centres have since broadened to include vocational training to enable women to earn an income.
