I think this is a good idea. However, I have a few thoughts to share. In India, it is important that youth who have attained a social status need to learn about the grassroot lives. also, we have youth from the grassroots who need windows of opportunity to learn the 'developed' side. I feel this process should at both these streams of youth for participation in "grassroutes". The other is, while it is necessary to share learnings and experiences, care should be taken about the following: reduction of the entire process to reporting, wrong reporting and delinking from the learning process of that life after coming back.

Prasanna, Sorry for delay in response.

We at Grassroutes believe that any change starts from with in. Through this program we are providing young people with a transformational experience which would help them discover their role in changing the country.

We would be very happy to catch up with you and discuss over a cup of coffee. Mail me (keerthikiran@yofa.org) and we could work out a convenient time.
