Education forms the very basis of a strong society where individuals are moulded to think better and contribute to nation building. Apart from its macro benefits, education is also the avenue for building better lives, communities and more. With the right education, not only does one increase their chance of gainful employment, but also enhances their quality of life and social stature. Education is proportionately linked with improved health, well-being, family life etc. Foundational education or early education is one of the most crucial junctures of an individual's life. it is during the early years of one's life that they develop basic skills required to live in a society and prosper. From teaching social skills, communication to forming the very basis of language, math and other key skills, early education's importance in our lives cannot be overstated. India has always given ample emphasis to building a strong base for early education which is to be imparted to children between the ages of 3-8. The government has recently launched forward thinking initiatives such as the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) and the National ECCE Policy, the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 etc. from focusing on learning, nutrition and a lot more, these initiatives are geared towards strengthening the foundation we give to our young Indians.Beyond the government, early education is also largely impacted by the plethora of women leaders, who are committed to nurturing young minds of India.
