Sorry... I know we lag behind in our blogging but then we have been too busy. Me with my PhD work going in fits and starts, my travels, ppt presentations on Gandhi at all kinds of places, the spin a yearn project, many many new ideas coming up ... among them is a wall bulletin for schools, a youth for peace convention. Sangeeta Isvaran is going around in Brazil and Mexico and US with the sari link project... we are also doing a youth for peace camp for girls of Avvai Home at Dakshinachitra... I am organizing a seminar on Gandhi at the department of Philosophy, University of Madras on 4th October, giving an endowment lecture on Gandhi at the Women's Christian College, Chennai, and preparing for a key note presentation on Gandhi and work at the Jiva career congress at NIMHANS Bangalore.
We welcome Bharathi who has come in as a volunteer into the Aseema family
with much love,
Devika
