Education initiatives are part of governments all across the globe,
guided by a much-deliberated system of principles influencing decisions that are aimed at
achieving pre-determined outcomes, which, in turn, are perceived to be beneficial to a particular
country’s goals. Much thought goes on behind creating initiatives: they are statements of intent
and, equally, the task of implementation is a very complex one. Not just that, innovative
education initiatives have the huge additional responsibility of creating and shaping future
generations, who, in turn, are any country’s future. The initiatives have to keep in mind the
cultural and social norms of the country, while creating the atmosphere for salutary change.
Another aspect that has to be taken into account while designing innovative government initiatives
in education is the changes in society and its demands, both locally and globally, and rethink
their strategies in order to benefit a new and contemporary scenario which will equip children
to face and handle challenges of current times.
