Programs

  • Education Programmes

    At the core of CMCA's initiatives are experiential Citizenship Education Programs for school students. These programs aim to instill democratic values, such as justice, liberty, equality, inclusivity, sustainability, and social responsibility, using experiential learning techniques. Last year, these programmes were conducted in 850+ schools, reaching over 75,000+ children across India. CMCA offers various programs tailored for different age groups, fostering self-awareness, active citizenship, and life skills. Schools can effortlessly implement CMCA's programmes, benefiting from volunteer educators equipped with training and course materials. The initiatives create a ripple effect, empowering young citizens as catalysts for positive change nationwide.

  • Programmes for Colleges

    CMCA extends its civic education beyond schools to engage with young adults, especially college students who have recently gained voting rights. Recognizing the significance of citizenship skills, CMCA introduces "Catalyse," a series of impactful workshops aimed at fostering social responsibility and good citizenship among college students. Aligned with SDG 4, NAAC, and NEP 2020, these workshops cover diverse topics such as active citizenship, breaking gender bias, critical thinking, and more. The interactive and experiential sessions utilize role plays, games, and discussions to instill a sense of community and promote an understanding of interconnected well-being.
