  BACKGROUND/HISTORY                                                            

The State Resource Centre, Kerala came into existence on 8th July 1978.

  The functioning of SRC, Kerala was then entrusted to ‘KANFED’ (Kerala Association for Non-formal Education and Development), a leading voluntary organisation which was performing more or less the same line of functions of SRC.

 

The programmes and activities of KANFED were spread over the state, which created an atmosphere for the conduct of literacy programmes in the state.

 

While performing the duties of SRC, KANFED has organised a number of training programmes, seminars and workshops, Kalajathas and vehicle processions frequently, with the local public participation under the leadership of  P.N. Panicker, the father of Library Movement. This movement achieved a greater momentum and people’s participation.  They have also prepared a number of patavalies, guides, handbooks & workbooks for each section of people.

 

The success behind the total literacy programmes viz., PELCK and Ernakulam TL Campaigns in Kerala is highly indebted to KANFED-SRC and Grandhasala Sangham, Kerala Sasthra Sahityaparishat and other NGOs.  KANFED SRC experimented several methods for teaching illiterates.

 

After the successful completion of TLC in Kerala, the Post Literacy Programmes were introduced.  KANFED-SRC officials also co-operated in the venture. Newsletter / Broad sheet was published for Neo-literates during the phase.

           

In 1995, SRC, Kerala was delinked from KANFED and registered as an autonomous organisation as per the direction of the Directorate of Adult Education.  The overall control and supervision of the State Resource Centre, Kerala is vested with the Education Department, Govt. of Kerala.

The jurisdiction of SRC, Kerala extends throughout Kerala & Lakshadweep.

 

The Management of SRC is vested with a Governing Body consisting of 15 official and non-official members, under the Chairmanship of Secretary, General Education, Govt. of Kerala.
