About Global Classrooms: New Delhi

Over the past five years, the New Delhi Global Classrooms program has grown to encompass schools from every state in India and beyond. A consortium of 114 schools across India and 13 schools outside of India, is dedicated to "preparing global citizens and agents of social change committed to humanistic values and democratic traditions." With Global Classrooms: New Delhi’s premier partner, DPS R.K. Puram, the program has reached approximately 90% of all DPS students. 125 schools participated in their 5th Global Classrooms Model UN Conference last year, with students from every state of India as well as Kuwait, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and the UK in attendence. In addition, conference opening ceremonies included an opportunity to engage with former president of India, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. Talks with India's Ministry of Education are underway to determine if Global Classrooms can be instituted at the National level.
