Alarippu developed keen interest in education while working on a project aimed at “Enhancing Anganwadi Worker’s Resources” (1984-88). Local Stories, poems, games etc were collected and a series of workshops were held to train anganwadi workers in using this material with the children – through dramas, games, and other ‘active’ methods of learning. Alarippu promotes ‘creative education’ by fostering: (a) The teaching-learning environment (b) Methodology and methods; (c) Content. Currently, Alarippu is working on girls’ education and children’s education at various locations.
