"They are "educated" who have learned much, remembered much, and make use of their knowledge in everyday life. Their virtues I will call education."
— Shri Shri Anandamurti jii
Education Relief and Welfare Section (ERAWS)
According to Founder Shrii P. R. Sarkar’s view in mind Education Relief and Welfare Section (ERAWS), since 1963 is dedicated to running various types of educational institutions all over the world guided by the Principles and Philosophy of Neo-humanism. “Sa’ Vidya’ Ya ‘Vimuktaye” – Education is for liberation in all aspects of life– is the guiding motto of our educational philosophy. Stress is given on moral and spiritual values and Neo-humanistic practices in elementary education during the formative age of a child which is very crucial for giving a better foundation for later life.
Neohumanist Education is practiced in a network of schools and institutes that span over fifty countries with more than 1000 kindergartens, primary schools, secondary schools, colleges and children's homes that have been established over the past 30 years. Some of these schools have been recognized for their excellence by the local governmental education authorities and have been given funding.
Others of these schools are in deprived environments where the teacher, parents and children struggle to find the simplest of equipment. From the perspective of the West many of the third world schools will look very poor indeed, yet they have significant support from their communities and provide sound elementary education where none was to be found before.
The schools are managed by dedicated staff and volunteers who work tirelessly and voluntarily to bring joy and learning into the lives of the young.
