Our Approach
Grounded in social-emotional development, our approach fosters empathy and challenges cultural narratives through experiential learning, leadership training, and community action.
Milaan Foundation believes every young person deserves the chance to thrive. We partner with communities globally to provide underserved youth, especially girls, with the opportunity to access education and resources, the agency to make informed decisions about their lives, and the support for their well-being. By investing in their potential, we empower them to become leaders and create lasting change in their communities.
For over a decade, Milaan Foundation has implemented youth-led leadership programs internationally, with a focus on advancing education and agency-building, empowering over 100,000 young people across India and Uganda.
From underserved communities in India to rural villages in Uganda and now urban neighborhoods across the U.S., we equip young people to become changemakers through bold, youth-led leadership and education programs grounded in social-emotional learning, mentorship, and community action.
