Working towards contributing to the spheres of Rural livelihood,Women empowerment & Education: Vivek, Gramya Manthan'12

“If you’re walking down the right path and you’re willing to keep walking, eventually you’ll make progress."

Vivek joined the Youth Alliance family two years back as a participant of our program Gramya Manthan. Keen on working towards the betterment of society, Vivek had started on the exploration of his journey towards change. He went on to pursue a Masters in Development Studies at Azim Premji University, Bangalore.

Through the medium of this course, Vivek hopes to understand more about the society and the issues with their impacts on individuals, collectives and how can different individuals and organizations come together to bring a change in the society collectively. Moving on from there, he wishes in the long run to be able to work and make significant contributions to the spheres of Rural livelihoods, Women empowerment and Education.

About his experience at Gramya Manthan he says, " Gramya Manthan helped me explore the other side of India by giving me an opportunity to experience the life of people in the Rural areas. Youth Alliance

 has provided me a much needed direction and confidence to leave a corporate job and pursue what I really want to do in my life."

With pride and confidence in the way he has been leading by example we wish Vivek the very best in all his endeavors.
