Sutradhar is a resource center which aims to provide access to educational innovations to several schools.

It aims to support and multiply the impact of educational innovations, leading to a qualitative improvement in the state of children's education.

CONCEPT Distillation and dispersal
Sutradhar opened in November 1995 in Bangalore. It is set up as an open-access resource bank of creative educational ideas and materials. Over the last decade, many innovations have been developed by educators working in different settings, but these are not widely known or easily available to others who could benefit from them. By pooling and promoting these innovations, a comprehensive resource centre like Sutradhar aims to multiply their impact, thereby minimising waste. While Sutradhar currently serves
Bangalore and Karnataka, it aims to reach out nationwide.
