My motivation to join Catalyst is to play a role, in trying to make a difference to peoples lives by getting our educational & learning product to reach as many children & curious minds as possible - across the globe. We want to pay special attention to the marginalized parts of the society whose growth is restricted by the limited means of living that people have. We believe that Education & Learning is the only way 'thinking' can change and only when that happens - will we will begin to see changes within us and around us - which can then lead to a better life. The idea is to inspire children and the curious minds to think - by acquiring knowledge and information and we want to reach as many of them as possible.
