Welcome to Antara
A n t a r a is a young social venture which aims to teach children science and related social issues like hygiene and global warming through haptic, kinesthetic and visual learning, we plan to leverage new technologies such as 3D printing to help achieve our goals
What We Do
Science Education in India has been severely restricted to Audio Visual learning and do not take into account the intuitive aspects of teaching, we believe this happens due to lack of resources, time and interest.
​
Antara aims to overcome these issues to bring a more exciting and feasible approach to teaching science. By using cost-effective yet intuitive 3D printed models we aim to teach science topics through haptic, kinesthetic and visual learning techniques to cater to all kinds of learners with minimum intervention from their teachers.
​
Staying true to our vision of teaching all kinds of learners, we also aim to teach the less privileged students by providing them these models at no cost.
Sustainable Development
Despite being a relatively young venture we plan to incorporate sustainability in both our vision and process right from the start.
-
We are committed to using sustainable materials wherever possible and develop our products with sustainability right in the forefront.
-
The aim of Equal Education is embedded right into our business model with majority of our proceeds promised towards the goal of educating children of all socio-economic classes.
-
We are aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals and aim to do our part in "Making the world a better place".
