At Learning by Locals, our vision is to create a safe space in every community where individuals can learn, share, and help make the world a happier place.
Learning by Locals is a registered NGO that is situated in a low-income community in New Delhi’s industrial area, Okhla. Started by Mr. Pradeep Kumar, founder of the travel company Delhi by Locals, the aim is to educate and empower today’s youth by helping to develop personal and professional skills and providing students with the right opportunities and guidance to achieve their goals. The teenage years can often feel incredibly confusing for young people.
The NGO was set up by Pradeep and Lalit, who had themselves been students of the NGO Manzil. Manzil offered them the right opportunities and support required to chase their dreams. Pradeep eventually got into the travel industry, while Lalit set off on his filmmaking journey. They both even studied in the U.S. and learnt about how students across the world benefit from a good education.
