Emerging cities in India hold the key to the country’s next wave of development, as they are rapidly transforming into hubs of innovation, aspiration, and opportunity beyond the traditional metros. With a growing youth population eager to learn and contribute, these cities offer a fertile ground for inclusive and sustainable growth. Education—especially experiential education—serves as a powerful catalyst in this transformation, equipping young individuals not just with knowledge, but with the real-world skills, confidence, and mindset needed to solve complex challenges and drive local impact. ExEd Fellows hailing from Emerging Cities will prioritize and be driven to integrate experiential education in their cities ultimately unlocking the immense potential of India’s emerging cities and shaping a stronger, more resilient future.
