India Sees 28 Million Children as First Educated Generation

In India, about 28 million children have become the first generation in their families to complete six years of schooling, marking a significant break from generational poverty. This milestone signals not only educational progress but also social and economic changes within families. However, sustaining this progress requires equal focus on children's nutrition, health, and basic home facilities, according to a study by Oxford University’s OPHI and UNDP using the global multidimensional poverty index.
