Quest Alliance Equipping youth in India with the skills needed to succeed in the workplace of tomorrow

Founded in 2008, Quest Alliance imparts youth in the public education system with "21st century skills" (life and work-readiness skills) by leveraging education technology and partnerships with local organizations. Its flagship programs place the student at the center and build the capacity of teachers at schools and skilling institutes to deliver engaging learning experiences. Beyond its direct impact in 12 states across India, Quest Alliance will reform and digitize India’s employability skills curriculum in partnership with the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. As part of its 2019-2024 strategy, Quest Alliance aims to reach 4 million students with improved skills and employment outcomes.

Partnership

  • Exchange and learning among LGT VP portfolio organizations
     

Capabilities

  • Core funding to strengthen impact evidence and build out monitoring and evaluation (M&E) and fundraising capabilities
  • Placement of LGT Venture Philanthropy Impact Fellows to fill in key vacancies

     

The LGT grant will give us the opportunity to proactively build  a resilient organization and help us build a workplace of tomorrow.  It will also enable us to invest in improving our impact assessment,  strategic finance and leadership development.
