“QS I-GAUGE Institution of Happiness Report 2024” Unveiled by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Bengaluru, 15 November 2024Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar today unveiled the “QS I-GAUGE Institution of Happiness Report 2024,” which provides a detailed analysis of the key factors influencing happiness, mental health, and well-being within academic environments. This extensive survey, one of the largest of its kind, gathered responses from 160,710 students and 20,768 faculty members across 108 educational institutions in 16 states and 1 Union Territory in India.

QS I-GAUGE is India’s leading education rating and assessment platform. The Institution of Happiness Survey 2024 explores various dimensions of well-being, equipping educational institutions with actionable insights to foster positive, inclusive, and supportive environments for both students and faculty.

While releasing the report, Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar said: Education is not just about imparting knowledge, but about nurturing joy, resilience, and compassion. By fostering emotional well-being and mindful growth, institutions can create a culture that supports not only the intellect but also the heart and soul of every student and educator.”

The report reveals that a strong sense of belonging, and inclusivity significantly enhances happiness among students and faculty. Educational institutions where individuals feel connected and included tend to report higher overall well-being. However, the survey highlights the need for targeted measures to support those who may feel isolated or disconnected. Establishing mentorship programs and cultural affinity groups can effectively create a more inclusive atmosphere, encouraging broader participation and engagement.

Mr. Ravin Nair, Managing Director of QS I-GAUGE, commented on the findings: Our goal with this report is to inspire change in the education sector. By prioritising mental health and fostering a culture of happiness, institutions can create a more conducive environment for both academic and personal growth.”
