Environmental, Social Justice & Governance Initiatives
Experiential Educational programs aim to develop a citizenry that is concerned, informed and critically engaged in environmental and social justice issues. Education can aid citizens in acquiring knowledge, attitudes, motivation, commitment and skills to work both collectively and as individuals towards solving current problems and preventing new ones. We believe that direct engagement and experienceis the best way to learn about the world. We are very keen to provide such opportunities to children, students, teachers, researchers and communities so that they may truly understand our society and engage with it responsibly, proactively and progressively in the cause of advancing environmental and social justice.
