Exploring Value based Informal Schooling : Sanchi,Lead The Change'13

“Nothing is as important as passion. No matter what you want to do with your life, be passionate” -Jon Bon Jovi

Sanchi Chandna, a girl with true determination and self belief joined us in our Lead The Change program,13. She is currently working with Kat-Katha,an organization which enables women working in brothels to fulfill aspirations that give them new avenues of freedom and self reliance.

Sanchi holds a strong belief that it is only the inner eye within us that can bring the change together with the power of strong connections. She tends to focus working on giving an empowering meaning to peoples’ life, taking them closer to their inner being and togetherness in the world seeking education as her master tool.

Exploring the field of education, she says," I am exploring the idea of value based informal schooling,main focus being on community education cum training which is specific to labors,class, 4 employees, women, sex workers and hijdas.”

About her engagement with Youth Alliance, she says,"Youth Alliance(YA) strengthened my goal of working in the social space arena, giving me clarity on various problems and there prospective solutions and the necessary mentoring from some great leaders and the in house YA team none the less.The intensive work that was done on me in terms of my inner being has been my most strong take away from YA. To look for external change and service, it is to me, after YA that the internal transformation is the real source of energy. Also to understand, it is not about giving, it is about standing at the same alleviation and sharing your presence and labor with others. Receiving their presence in your life with gratitude and at the same time serving yours with utmost love and compassion. Uniting our happiness should be the end result we all should aim at.”

With all the wise thoughts and the resolutions she hold in order to bring the change around, we wish her all the best.
