We're Educate for Life and we run a fantastic little school in rural Rajasthan called Hunar Ghar!
We built Hunar Ghar in one of the poorest and most isolated parts of India. We provide a high quality academic and skill-based education for free, support community development with reforestation work, women’s groups and more, and also promote wider changes in the Indian education system. What we do is crucial to enabling children and the community to live fulfilling lives in a way that they value, none of which would be possible without the great work of our team in India and the recognition and generous support of people like you!

Intern India
Posted 1 day ago.
Over the past few years we have had some fantastic interns at Hunar Ghar- from the early days when Rob applied his carpentry skills to help build the first rooms of the school, to becky’s fantastic work with the children and more recently Teddy (an architect that has defined the physical space of Hunar Ghar) and Neha who has started some incredible work with women’s health groups in the village.
Each of these interns has brought something new and valuable to the project but also, I hope, left with an experience that has re-shaped the way they think about education and development.
To date we have been relying on these fantastic people to just come across Educate for Life and Hunar Ghar; which has had its benefits, but also meant we are less accessible than we might be.
Over recent weeks, Ed and I have been working to open up the process of interning with us. Based on our previous experience and understanding of the needs of Hunar Ghar and of interns, we have started compiling some intern packs that pad out the different opportunities available to have a challenging but incredibly rewarding experience working with us and the community.
We;re hoping that in the next couple of weeks we will have some totally revamped intern pages that will get people excited about working with us and engaging with Hunar Ghar and the community in the future.
