MUMBAI: In a first-of-itskind of initiative aimed towards empowering children to find solutions to India’s most pressing problems, the JSW Group has set up Museum of Solutions (MuSo), an experiential museum in Mumbai. The MuSo, as it is known, is located at Victoria House in the Kamala Mills compound at Lower Parel area of Mumbai. It was opened to the public on Constitution Day, i.e., November 26.
MuSo, a not-for-profit initiative designed as a world-class, experiential children’s museum to champion the art of finding solutions, is a place where children can look at the world through their own eyes, and work together to create a better future. The initiative is expected to herald a new era for education and the role of museums in India.
Its innovative exhibits and learning programmes are designed to promote participatory learning by encouraging children to take a leadership position in solutionfinding practices. The exhibits draw inspiration from Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations, including over 50 programmes designed to encourage curiosity, and zest to find solutions.
The museum will soon establish a MuSo Changemakers Council. This will be a recurring, yearlong leadership, and advisory programme for children in the age groups of 11-14 years.
