Abstract

This article describes how autonomous education institutions (AEI) undertook an exploratory single case study of the Parivartan programme, contributing to new education policy and transforming rural education in India. This study narrates the journey of creating the mentorship programme and how various challenges were encountered. Exploring social cognitive theory, KASH framework, and diagnostic model, the mentoring programme supported rural adolescent individuals to develop their personalities, enhance life skills, and learn fundamental human values and skills. The key objective of the mentorship programme was to help adolescent children develop their core life skills. Both the organizational development and functionality aspects of the undertaken project are presented. Despite COVID-19 restrictions, the project successfully yielded 2450 sessions (of 90 min each), training 35 proteges over two years.
