Harnessing the Power of Disruptive Innovation for a Better NYC

  2. Sesame Workshop’s mission is what sparked the creation of Sesame Street and continues to be central to everything we do. All the content we create ties back to this mission of helping children reach their highest potential.
  3. In addition to health and nutrition, our local co-production in India, GalliGalliSimSim, has a curriculum that addresses literacy and joyful learning. And as you saw in the video, to further the reach of the show to children who need it most, we provide vans equipped with televisions for special screenings in urban slums. We also distribute educational materials.
  4. And perhaps most important, is our proven impact! Sesame Street is the most researched show in television. Numerous studies confirm our impact — on a wide range of cognitive outcomes, across many countries and cultures. An often sited longitudinal study by the University of Kansas showed that American children who frequently viewed Sesame Street as preschoolers had high school grade point averages that are almost 16% higher than those who don’t. A 2011 meta-analysis conducted by a leading research group concludes that children who watch one of our international versions of Sesame Street gain an average of 11.6% on learning outcomes compared to those who don’t.
