Universal Human Values Material for School Education

“The purpose of the education system is to develop good human beings capable of rational thought and action, possessing compassion and empathy…, with sound ethical moorings and values. It aims at producing engaged, productive, and contributing citizens for building an equitable, inclusive, and plural society as envisaged by our Constitution. Education must develop not only cognitive capacities... but also social, ethical, and emotional capacities and dispositions…. Education is fundamental for achieving full human potential, developing an equitable and just society, and promoting national development… A holistic and multidisciplinary education would aim to develop all capacities of human beings – intellectual, aesthetic, social, physical, emotional, and moral in an integrated manner” [NEP 2020, p 4].

Holistic education inculcates the following three aspects in the student:

1. Holistic, Humane Vision of Life – harmonious individual to cosmos
2. Human Values– human feelings, participation based on holistic vision
3. Skills– required to live with these values in mutual relationship at all levels of human existence

This page contains details of activities and courses that can help develop a holistic, humane vision of life and human values in school students.
