| Abstract | This thesis presents a qualitative instrumental case study of education and focuses on women’s education in socially engaged Buddhist organization in Mahabodhi International Meditation Center MIMC, Ladakh, India. MIMC is the first and only kind that supports women's education and is a socially engaged Buddhist organization founded by Theravada Monk. Ladakh is a dry desert, distant and remote place situated extreme north of India. This thesis also covers the brief history, culture, religion and social status of women and their education in Ladakh and to highlight the background of my study, which is the first case study on MIMC. Though there are various other humanitarian projects running in MIMC beside the women’s education, but women's education and their development have always been the first and pioneer project of MIMC. Though the importance to women is much better in comparison to the other part of Indian society, but by some means in field like education and employment, ladies have not been encouraged to the full extent. Except the not so good quality of education from the government schools, quality education for the poor and underprivileged children from remote areas of Ladakh is not accessible. This case study finds the unique education system of MIMC, which addresses holistic education which helps in promoting knowledge and wisdom for the children; MIMC effectively runs on overall in-out education system. It also encourages a higher level of education for women by special support and carrying out adult women’s literacy projects to uplift the status of women in the society both educationally and spiritually. The research also indicates that such projects carried by MIMC that is effective in helping thousands of children. |
