MIN aspires to level up the Math education field, providing quality resources for all. The goal is to inspire joy, purpose, and intrigue in math through innovative programs, eliminating math phobia. The desired change is a future where all students find math enjoyable and purposeful, with increased representation of diverse backgrounds among future math Olympians and champions.

About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

Nepal faces significant issues with educational disparities and inequalities, evident in widespread math anxiety and negative perceptions among students from a young age. The prevailing rote learning approach to math instruction further limits students' potential and understanding. Thus, MIN was created to combat this by fostering a love for math and easing the grasp of its real-life applications.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

MIN's approach encircles diverse initiatives. Its ETA campaigns target underprivileged students, offering them free resources, workshops, and tutoring sessions. Its flagship programs include the JMOC, and Olymprep for intensive Olympiad training. Through programs like Women in Mathematics and Girls Mathematics Olympiad Camp, it aims to empower young girls in Math. Moreover, it conducts talk shows and discussion sessions with industry leaders to share insightful thoughts and knowledge. It has also been launching the "eli5" YouTube series, simplifying complex concepts to make them easier for learners of all ages and backgrounds. Its digital presence extends further with the "Road to Olympiad" series, a training program aimed at the international level. Adding to its diverse initiatives, MIN Mathematical Modelling Bootcamp, a first in Nepal, equips students with practical problem-solving skills. Its approach extends to making Math engaging through game series like "Sunaulo Sanibar".

How has it been spreading?

MIN's innovative approach to math education has been spreading through a multi-faceted strategy involving interactive sessions, flagship programs, collaborations, alumni connections, and a strong social media presence. We have worked directly(in both physical and online medium) with over 1,400 underprivileged students, promoting interactive learning and exploration of math topics beyond the curriculum through our ETA sessions.

Through our programs like JMOC, Olymprep, and Road To Olympiad, we have reached students nationally and internationally, drawing participants globally from India, Bangladesh, Syria, Brazil, and Botswana. Collaborations with organizations like FPL, MAN, Reinstalling Hope and Wiseyak have further expanded our reach and impact.
