BAPS implements many programs in an effort to bolster and promote education around the world. Our educational activities include establishing modern schools and colleges, research centers and hostels and support for further learning and career guidance programs. These programs provide an environment for students to progress in their academic careers and to also develop as contributing members of society. Reaching tens of thousands of students every year through workshops, educational campaigns and professional conferences, the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha believes that education is empowering and a key driver of external and internal development.
