Science Education and Scientific Awareness
Who we are
The Academy Trust (tAcT) is a registered public charitable body under the aegis of the Indian Academy of Sciences. It was set up in August 2014 with the aim of making a tangible change in the way Science is implemented in the educational system, and to raise scientific awareness in society.
Our programmes are designed to engage with — and benefit — people at all levels: from students to experts, from focus groups to broad communities.
Current initiatives
