'never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.' margaret mead, anthropologist

be part of a creative and intensive leadership experience over 3 days - 13th to 15th of april 2008 where you have the opportunity to make a tremendous difference to a group of less privileged children and youth in mumbai, india. you also get to expand your social leadership by working through some exciting and engaging hands on community challenges and through insightful coaching which will provide clarity and deeper understanding of your leadership and purpose.

we awaken collective leadership by deeply touching individuals through meaningful experiences to bring alive their wholeness so that they begin to view the world from a perspective of oneness and get inspired to create a better and vibrant world. we believe that engaging in creative and meaningful experiences awakens the wholeness of individuals in an effortless, fun, deep and vibrant way and ignites their power, their visions and their creativity to contribute to their worlds in completely new ways.

you can experience this by interacting with the children from the slum communities of mumbai and by working alongside the youth of akanksha and a diverse group of individuals from around the world on a specific community challenge. it is a profound and fun experience in active citizenship and will enable you to contribute in a new way to this community and also your leadership group.

you will engage with our partner akanksha, a non-profit organization in mumbai that impacts the lives of less privileged children through non formal education. they encourage children to dream but more importantly, they empower them to deliver on their dreams. they believe that every child deserves a childhood and has potential and we can all make a difference to make this world better for our children. to know more, check out www.akanksha.org.

• truly engage in your work and life with a renewed passion and get more creative about your own visions;

• proactively connect and support the issues and activities that are impacting the world through your sensitivity and compassion;
