An Atal Tinkering Lab provides activity-based learning in the identified schools across the country where young minds can give shape to their ideas for societal problems. It also fosters entrepreneurship and innovation, enabling more than 3 million students between Grade VI to Grade XII to acquire a problem-solving, tinkering and innovative mindset.
