India : Arts for All, Slam Out Loud (English)

Slam Out Loud is an Indian non-profit that uses the arts along with multiple low tech platforms to deliver support for arts-based socio-emotional learning and mental well-being to the most vulnerable children at scale. By offering localized, need-sensitive and engaging at-home audio, video, text, and print resources for learners who have limited access to the internet, they aim to lead children towards creative outcomes and build mental resilience during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) based school closure period. Within a few weeks of school closures, Slam Out Loud (SOL) rapidly adapted its interventions to create resources that are free of charge, interactive, and accessible in English and Hindi (and being translated into Punjabi, Tamil, Malayalam and Marathi) and made them available through various low-tech distribution channels (WhatsApp, Interactive Voice Response Systems (IVRS) and radio).This brief documents India’s initiatives that ensured education continuity for all using technology and provided support to teachers, students, and their families.
