Agenda |
 |
The idea of Pitara was born out of the recognition that
education is not an end in itself. That it has a higher
goal - of helping our children become intelligent human
beings. Intelligent and sensitive to their immediate
social-political-cultural-ecological surroundings.
From our own experiences as parents we have realised that,
as a general rule, we underestimate children. They are far
more intelligent, sensitive, and concerned than we believe
them to be. As they grow, it is from us that they learn
to become indifferent, and unconcerned. They take on our
mortal fear of failure and paranoia for success.
In a world that is getting carried away with material and
vocational success, Pitara hopes to provide an alternate
ideology. The ideology is an outcome of collective guilt,
born out of a realisation that we have more or less messed
up our planet which we inherited only as guardians to
pass on to our children.
Pitara's Agenda
How can we give our children a better world, and how can we give the world better children.
