Samvada

Samvada is a youth focused organisation that equips young people with skills, knowledge and values to build their lives and create a socially just, safe and sustainable world. Through Youth Resource Centers young people from disadvantaged backgrounds are helped to explore self and society, and to re-discover the joys and purpose of youth-hood by examining their confusions, dilemmas and dreams. Entering our portals with despair and anxiety, they emerge from our sensitization workshops, exposures, campaigns and festivals with confidence, a career path, healthy relationships and a vision for society. Baduku Centre for Livelihoods Learning is an initiative of Samvada that offers young people with meaningful livelihood options through unique courses that integrate work opportunities and work skills with self discovery. The mandate of Kanaja, Samvada’s youth research cell, is to create and disseminate knowledge about youth and youthhood, in partnership with young people. The Centre for Youth Work & Youth Rights promotes youth work and advocates for youth rights at the state and national level.
