India is home to 160 million children under age six, surrounded by loving caregivers who want the best for them but lack the knowledge and resources to support early learning and development. Rocket Learning enables access to quality Early Childhood Development for children from birth to age six by training India's frontline daycare workers, engaging parents through WhatsApp-based communities, and partnering with governments to strengthen public early learning systems. Using science-backed content, AI-enabled technology, and human-centred design, Rocket Learning now reaches one in every four government daycare centres nationally, supporting 5.2 million children across 12 states
We partner with Rocket Learning as part of LGT Venture Philanthropy's commitment to quality Early Childhood Development in India, and as an anchor implementing partner within SIRA, our integrated Nurturing Care collective. We support Rocket Learning across the following areas:
Early childhood development is one of the most critical yet under-recognised human capital investments of our time. If we are to shift outcomes at scale, we must invest in research, systems change, and field-building - not just service delivery. Our collaboration with LGT Venture Philanthropy reflects a shared commitment to strengthening the ECD ecosystem in India and the world, and advancing thoughtful, evidence-led leadership across the sector.
