Abstract	The Happiness Curriculum is made up of compulsory 45-minute daily lessons with the aim of developing mindfulness, critical thinking, reflection, and social-emotional skills among students in more than 1,000 government-run schools in Delhi, India. Three units--Exploring Happiness through Learning and Awareness; Experiencing Happiness in Relationships through Feelings; and Happiness through Active Participation--based on a "triad of happiness" and the philosophy of coexistence are taught from nursery to grade 8. This case study outlines the inception, implementation, and impact of the Happiness Curriculum in the context of broader education reforms in Delhi.
