VOICED : Learning to read and write at India's school for grannies

In rural India, elderly women aged 60 to 90 are attending a 'grandmother school' to fulfill their dream of becoming literate. The school, located 120 kilometers from Mumbai and funded by a charitable trust, challenges traditional attitudes by allowing these women to break stigmas associated with illiteracy. The initiative promotes equality and community integration, with students wearing colorful uniforms to defy traditional mourning attire. The school day includes two hours of study, and students often complete homework with help from their grandchildren.
