Super 100 helps disadvantaged girls pursue careers in science

Named Super 100, this programme is inspired by the Super 30 educational model created by Patna-based Anand Kumar. This endeavour is spearheaded by the Thiruvananthapuram District Administration in collaboration with Kanal Innovations Charitable Trust.

The programme aims to ignite a passion for science in these students and unveil career opportunities that have previously been out of reach due to their disadvantaged backgrounds. For these young women, science represents a beacon of hope for overcoming societal barriers.
