When Migrant Children Draw the FutureR

Robot Art Competition - New Delhi

We gave them paper. We gave them crayons. We asked them to draw a robot. We didn’t expect them to draw our mission back to us.
🏆 Laksh, a migrant child from our Gurugram field site, won First Prize. He drew an AI robot standing under a tree, holding an open book, teaching four children sitting cross-legged on the ground. A signboard reads - I Light Global. He drew our entire vision without being asked.
🥉 Rita, age 10, Class 7, migrant child from Madhya Pradesh, won Third Prize. She drew an AI robot seated at a desk, typing on a laptop, connected to a digital interface. A child who has never owned a computer -drawing the future she intends to be part of.
💙 These children share small rooms. They crossed states for survival. They carry the invisible weight of displacement every single day.
But give them a crayon and a moment of safety - and they imagine everything.
This is what I Light Global exists for. Not to speak for these children. To make sure the world finally listens to them.
🌍 Every child carries a future. We just help clear the path.
