Hello, everyone!
I'm Mugdha, a recent addition to the GTA's space, and I wanted to inform you about an upcoming two-part Webinar series with Ashik Krishnan and the Travellers’ University, on the 29th of September and 6th of October, at 1pm GMT. Ashik is a part of the GTA's general assembly, and a part of Vikalp Sangam's Facilitation Team as well.
Below is some information on the TU and the brief flow of the two webinars:
The Travellers’ University is a unique initiative focussed on facilitating learning through travel-based experiential learning programmes, through multiple short and long-term explorations.
In the former session of the two-part webinar series, we have 4 co-creators of TU introducing their work, along with sharing their own experiences that led them to thinking of alternatives to mainstream educational practices. They will also be talking about ‘Alivelihoods’, livelihoods of intentional living & lifelong learning for a sustainable, equitable & just world.
In the latter session, we plan to host fellows from the ‘52 Parindey Fellowship’, TU’s 8-month long immersive program for exploring research interests through ‘Parindeys’ who are practising Alivelihoods:
“52 represents the number of weeks in a year, and Parindey translates to birds in English, which loosely captures the essence of mentors we intend to learn from.”
The webinars are between 45 minutes to an hour long each, and designed in such a way that they connect with each other, yet are able to be viewed separately.
We hope that this will be suitable for participants who cannot attend both, but will be able to attend either session.
