Narada<\/a>, an organization active in the education sector, has launched its 2025 Annual Impact Report, marking the organization\u2019s transition toward an educational intervention model based on behavioral sciences, focused on developing the skills that technology cannot replicate: critical thinking, emotional self-regulation, and self-discipline.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 2020, Narada initially intervened in areas where children and teachers faced basic needs: deteriorated classrooms with ceilings at risk of collapsing during lessons, lack of internet connectivity (and thus access to technology for online schooling), relocating school toilets inside school buildings, or building sports fields. To date, over 5 million euros have been invested in more than 500 schools in Romania, directly impacting over 260,000 children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNarada was born from a simple outrage: children who cannot get to school because they lack shoes. Five years later, we understood that the problem is never just what is visible on the surface. It is about what is built inside: critical thinking, emotional self-regulation, self-discipline, and the courage to fail and continue. These are precisely the skills that no algorithm can replicate, and which will be decisive in the labor market,\u201d says Andra Munteanu, Co-founder and President of Narada<\/strong>.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2025 report documents Narada\u2019s transition from punctual, infrastructure-based interventions to testing a behavioral model aimed at proposing its scaling within the national education system. So far, the program has been implemented in 28 schools across 20 counties, directly involving 1,180 students and indirectly impacting approximately 10,000 children. Parents and teachers have also been directly involved: 512 parents and 100 teachers participated in activities and training sessions, and 216 hours were dedicated to classroom activities. The investment in these programs amounted to 300,000 euros, audited according to ISA standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe implemented a comprehensive behavioral intervention methodology in 28 schools across 20 counties, selected to be representative of Romania\u2019s reality. Our model, inspired by the concept of \u2018ordinary needs for EXTRAORDINARY children,\u2019 started from the question: what do children from vulnerable environments need to overcome their condition and succeed in life? The answer translates into essential skills such as self-discipline, critical thinking, and self-regulation\u201d<\/em>, added Andra Munteanu.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In preparation for nationwide scaling, three educational programs were tested in 2025, with Narada working in stages alongside experts: research \u2192 co-creation with teachers \u2192 piloting \u2192 measurement \u2192 adjustment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2025 report presents the results of the first programs, demonstrating the potential for scaling:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
