AGA KHAN HOSTEL, HYDERABAD, REFLECTS ON ITS IMPACT ON ITS STUDENTS LIVES

The Aga Khan Hostel, Hyderabad (AKHH) strives to provide students coming from the underserved regions of India with a safe residential environment, academic, co-curricular and socioemotional support, and appropriate guidance in various aspects of life. Since its establishment in 1955, the hostel’s extensive reach, progressive programmes and emphasis on inclusivity have created a lasting impact on its students and the communities it serves.

The hostel’s dorm parents - teachers trained in critical areas, including community life, interpersonal skills, health, and safety - have demonstrated commendable work in the holistic development of thousands of students through pastoral care, quality educational support and exciting recreational activities. Today, 130 AKHH students are supported by nine dorm parents, an Academic Coordinator and the Head of Hostel to develop the knowledge, skills and values needed to become contributing members of a pluralistic society.
