The India Foundation for the Arts (IFA) invites proposals from Government-aided and Non-profit Schools in India for Arts-Integrated Projects under its Arts Education programme.
The India Foundation for the Arts (IFA) seeks to implement arts-integrated projects in Government-aided and Non-profit schools located in non-metropolitan areas across India to strengthen teaching and learning through arts education.
The Arts Education programme Kali-Kalisu (‘learn’ and ‘teach’ in Kannada) aims to make ‘learning’ an engaging and joyous experience in schools by using different art forms for curriculum-based teaching pedagogies.
In keeping with this idea, IFA invites project proposals from Government-aided and Non-profit schools that aim to create a solid foundation for arts-integrated teaching pedagogies and encourage curiosity and creativity among students.
