The work belongs to the people doing it

Kabir Foundation is deliberately small at the centre and wide at the edges. Most of what happens under our name is carried out by teachers in government schools, women facilitating collectives in their own villages, and volunteers who read with children every week.

Advisors & Field Colleagues

A wider circle

Around the core team sits a circle of advisors — teacher educators, researchers, community organisers and practitioners — who review our programme design, challenge our assumptions and keep us honest about what the evidence actually says.

  • Teacher educators and curriculum practitioners
  • Researchers in education, sociology and public policy
  • Community organisers and women's collective leaders
  • Legal, financial and compliance advisors

If your work sits in one of these areas and you would like to advise us, we would like to hear from you.
