WHO ARE WE?

eduSOIL Education Consultancy Pty. LTD is a South African hybrid social enterprise providing mindfulness-based
citizenship interventions (MBCI) in India in partnership with Design For Change and green.whynot.

WHAT DO WE OFFER?

We offer MBCIs with four TransformME packs that enable learners, educators and youth to take action on issues
affecting them by developing holistic life skills and social entrepreneurship. eduSOIL has integrated designthinking with mindfulness-based strategies that develop self-reflective and metacognitive skills to resolve intrinsic
barriers to learning and is addressing youth unemployment by providing training and job opportunities for
unemployed youth. As a partner of Teach A Man to Fish (UK), we enable schools to receive School Enterprise
Challenge resources to develop action projects into school businesses.

HOW DO WE DO IT?
We provide TransformME packs and training through direct sales or NPO donations for vulnerable communities.
Schools with annual fees of less than Rs 5,000 per year are eligible for our NPO rates and considered as
beneficiaries of our ongoing fundraising efforts. Schools with fees of more than Rs 5,000 per year are charged a
premium participation fee. We also encourage private/international schools to purchase a Starter Pack for a local
school in a vulnerable community near them. We assist the schools to engage affluent learners to support
change projects initiated by the vulnerable community

ARE OUR PROGRAMMES RECOGNISED AND RELEVANT?

Since 2010 DFC has pioneered child-led citizenship, enabling learners and teachers in 35 countries to address
issues affecting them through child-driven, social entrepreneurship. Endorsed by the Harvard School of Education
it received a 2012 INDEX award and a 2014 Ashoka/Lego Reimagine Learning award. eduSOILs founder is a
Spark* Changemaker, engaged in a Masters in Education study measuring the impact of the programme on
stress and mindfulness levels as well as 21st century skills and dispositions of learners, educators and youth.
eduSOIL intends to offer accredited training for professional development and learnerships in the future.
