About the Conference

 It is most essential that the minority communities acquire quality education at all levels for self development, for the development of family and society and to contribute positively to the progress and development of the nation. There are three common hurdles faced by minorities in the process of acquiring quality education which are as under:-

1.      A large number is all away from the purview of Schools on any formal education across the country. 2. Those who are fortunate to be admitted to Schools face the gloom of sub-standard poor quality education. 3. Those few who complete their education and obtain university degrees are turned down at the doors of employers.

The Conclave is expected: (i) To discuss and share educational practice and research, and ways of organizing and providing quality education to cater to the needs of minority community;  (ii) To discuss contentious issues on the quality education and designing future strategies to address the need of minorities in global context.  (iii) To amplify the voices of minorities and to have ample representation in the various processes and schemes of the Government concerning education and development of Minorities to get optimum benefit and utilization of those schemes.
