Covestro, a manufacturer of high-performance polymer materials, has inaugurated the Brighter World Lab in Airoli, Navi Mumbai. The lab was inaugurated on 31 October 2018.
This is the first of the 20 other labs planned to be opened across the country. This is an addition to the 10 labs already opened in 2017.
Covestro (India) is also looking forward to providing access to quality education and learning for students from the underprivileged section of society. It will also cater to teachers who will be trained to teach science and mathematics in a effective way with Orientation Programs, Jugaad Workshops (developing science models by using waste/ low-cost material) and Interactive Maths Sessions using Vedic and UCMAS methodology. The company is collaborating with Arch Foundation to set up these 20 labs across the country.
This initiative will benefit over 8,000 children and more than 40 teachers.
