ROOTS is Vidhya Vidhai Foundation's Design for Education conclave: three days, once a year, always somewhere new. Each edition gathers a group of passionate individuals to ponder around a single question: what would it take to build a future worthy of the children who will inherit it? Working in education is not the entry requirement here. Taking the question seriously is.\r\n          <\/p>\r\n          <p style=\"text-align: justify !important; text-justify: inter-word !important;\">\r\n            This year, ROOTS moves to Coimbatore, a city with its own instinct for building things that last: in a handloom's rhythm, in the memory of an engineer, G.D.Naidu, who believed India could build its own machines, in communities that have kept their knowledge systems alive across generations. ROOTS borrows that instinct and turns it toward the future of children, carrying forward the questions it asked last year along Nagapattinam's coast, and turning them toward a sharper one: how do we design for a child's dignity and future, and who gets to decide what that future should mean?\r\n          <\/p>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n\r\n        <!--<div class=\"roots-action-row\">-->\r\n

child's future should hold, and most answers start with the world that's coming: new technology, new kinds of work, skills we are still understanding. Fewer answers start with the child. What do they want their future to be? And is a good future simply one where a child succeeds, or one where their success leaves something better behind for the people and world around them? ROOTS 2026 holds both halves of this in equal weight: the ground a child needs to stand on today, and the future they get to define for themselves from there.\r\n        <\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n\r\n      <!-- Column 2 -->\r\n      <div class=\"roots-theme-text-col\">\r\n        <p class=\"roots-theme-paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify !important; text-justify: inter-word !important;\">\r\n          The method borrows its name from a term the design theorist Don Norman coined: humanity-centered design.

ROOTS runs on exactly that discipline: check the root cause, consider the whole ecosystem, take the long view, and design with the people this is for, not around them.\r\n        <\/p>\r\n

It made me pause, rethink, and unlearn a lot of things I thought I already knew - and in that process, I learnt so much more. What stood out to me the most was the process - the thinking, the patience, and the way every small detail mattered. I realized that design and problem-solving aren't just about jumping to solutions, but about really getting close to the problem, understanding its depth, and feeling it before trying to fix it. One of the biggest takeaways for me was understanding that solutions grow naturally when you deeply connect with the people and the problem. It's not about fixing, it's about listening, observing, and co-creating. A big shoutout and heartfelt thanks to the VV team for organizing everything so beautifully - from planning to facilitation.
