Vignettes, diaries, videos, conversations: every entry in this section brings you up-close with us and our work
Our three operating units — Field Institutions, Grants and Universities — function in an integrated manner to fuel the Foundation’s motto of contributing towards a just, equitable, humane and sustainable society. We bring you a collection of narratives from all three units, straight from our people and partners across India. These stories, in the form of videos, animation, interviews and journals, showcase the journey and the Foundation in its various fields of work.
