A recognition that reinforces the importance of evidence-led, context-driven approaches to adolescent well-being!

We are honoured to receive the ACAMH Awards 2026 – Innovative Research, Training or Practice in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs) Award.

This recognition strengthens our commitment to advancing adolescent mental health through meaningful interventions, research and collaborative action.

Our gratitude to ACAMH for this recognition and to our teams and partners who continue to champion the well-being of young people.

Reinforcing the idea of purpose with profession.

An activity filled with fun, creativity and meaningful connection was organised in Navi Mumbai district of Mumbai with volunteers from Bharat Bijlee. This involved collaboratively creating artwork on given topics, with participants taking turns to contribute. Each group began by discussing how they wanted to interpret their given topic, after which every member added their own touch to the artwork, one after another.

Among the many heartwarming moments, one that received the loudest applause from the volunteers: an adolescent boy confidently shared his vision of what the world could look like in 2050, which his group brought to life through collaborative artwork. His confidence and the group's collective vision made the moment especially memorable.

Together, we look forward to building pathways to a brighter future for all our adolescents. Here's to celebrating such meaningful moments, strengthening partnerships, and creating lasting connections year after year.

A proud moment for Magic Bus India Foundation!

During his visit to GSSS Killar, Pangi, the Hon’ble Education Minister of Himachal Pradesh, Shri Rohit Thakur Ji, interacted with our Jeevan Shiksha Prakalp (JSP) Fellow, Trilok Singh, who briefed him on Magic Bus’s work in the region.

Implemented in collaboration with NITI Aayog’s Aspirational Blocks Programme, Jeevan Shiksha Prakalp is reaching children across six aspirational blocks of Himachal Pradesh – Pangi, Tissa, Pooh, Nirmand, Chuhara and Kupvi.

The Hon’ble Minister appreciated Magic Bus’s efforts to extend life skills education and adolescent empowerment initiatives to some of the state’s most remote and underserved regions.

Geography should never be a barrier to opportunity. We remain committed to reaching the last mile and ensuring that every child has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

Sometimes, the biggest transformation begins with finding your voice.

Once shy and hesitant to participate in class, Abhijit Mondal, a Class VII student at Kajalgaon High School, gradually gained confidence through our programme.

His journey reflects the power of life skills education.

At Magic Bus, 97% of adolescents in the intervention group report feeling capable of working and performing in a team, highlighting the importance of building confidence alongside education. Every child has the potential to grow. Sometimes, all it takes is the right encouragement and an opportunity to take that first step.
