It is the firm belief of Founder & Chairperson, Mrs. Neerja Birla, that learning is a lifelong process; and through the Trust, she has ensured that anyone who is eager to learn has an avenue to do so.

Under the purview of the Trust, she set up the Aditya Birla World Academy, which is a pioneering International school, with an Indian Soul; and The Aditya Birla Integrated School, which provides a holistic learning environment to students with learning difficulties.
