Mrinalika Rathore (Team Leader- Sashaktikaran foundation). She elaborated regarding creating awareness about the importance of contributing to the society. Holding a vision of Rajasthan where every child feels empowered through education, Sashaktikaran aims at to transform one school at a time into a living system of learning where everyone involved with the school tries to learn & enhance his/her capabilities to ensure an empowering education to children in school. This year the Organization has started working with low Income School GeetaAsharam Children’s School in Sodala Jaipur. Sashaktikaran along with a dedicated team of teachers & volunteers out of which 8 are from IIS University itself, are on the mission to transform the way learning happens in School. The lecture threw the light on welfare of children coming from underprivileged section of the society, making them capable enough to stand by their selves. Educating them etc. she also talked about what is the role of youth in bringing about a change in the societal norms by encoding several examples which she experienced herself in “TEACH FOR INDIA” like a clerk’s daughter became professional dancer & many such beautiful examples which inspired us a lot as we all realized there is lot of potential in our society & there is so much to be done with lot of hope & courage. With this she also conducted very interesting activities which made each student feel what kind of contribution they are giving to our society activities like “what will be written on our graveyards that what we have done in our life”? The session ended on a very positive note where one student was in tears. She also proposed collaboration between our esteemed university &Sashaktikaran organization wherein students who want to contribute constructively to the society can go and volunteer with them. Looking forward to constructive collaboration so that students can work with the Organization towards Rajasthan where every child gets an education that empowers.
