Project Prakash

To maximize the impact of Project Prakash on children’s lives and science, an important goal in the coming years is to create the Prakash Center for Children, a campus that will integrate the core missions of the project in one location. The center will provide:

​

1. Treatment to curably blind children,

2. Rehabilitation and education to treated children, and

3. Facilities for scientific research.

​

Adopting an integrated approach will allow us to derive the greatest benefits from the natural synergies that exist between treatment, education and research. This enables:

​

1. A clear path from treatment to mainstreaming

2. Real-world relevance of scientific research

3. Translation of research to clinical and educational practice

4. Extended treatments, follow-ups and outcome analyses

​

Our ambitious plans for the Prakash Center call for a significant infusion of resources. We are tackling the challenge head-on by developing creative strategies for fund-raising. We welcome all help and would love to have you contact us.
