Engagement of Consultant/Vendor towards implementation of AI Samarth Project in Uttarakhand State.

Room to Read India was established in 2003 and presently has programs in twelve states – Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Telangana, Uttarakhand, and Uttar Pradesh. Room to Read is an organization transforming the lives of millions of children by focusing on literacy and gender equality in education.

The AI Samarth Project aims to strengthen digital and AI literacy among students and teachers through school-based interventions, capacity building, technology-enabled learning, and system strengthening initiatives. The project is being implemented across approximately 500 schools in Uttarakhand in close collaboration with government stakeholders and education institutions.

Room to Read Trust India, supported by the Central Square Foundation, will implement AI Samarth project from July 2026 to April 2027. The initiative integrates gender-intentional pedagogy and content into AI literacy programming to ensure equitable participation of female teachers and students in underserved contexts. The project will cover approximately 500 schools across Dehradun and Chamoli districts, engaging 1,000 female teachers and 20,000 female students (Grades 6–12). Key activities include teacher training, classroom-based dissemination of AI Samarth modules, and the development of gender-responsive teaching resources. Implementation will be supported by MIS dashboards, quality audits, and KAP studies to track reach, adoption, and learning outcomes. Project’s expected outcomes include strengthened teacher capacity, inclusive classroom practices, enhanced confidence and aspirations among female students, and generation of evidence for scalable gender-intentional AI literacy programming. The project will also contribute to ecosystem learning through documentation, case studies, and human impact stories.
