Sambhaavnaa Institute is open to hosting programs of two kinds:
Co-hosting Programs: Collaborative Programs with like-minded organisations. In such programs the resources and responsibilities are shared between Sambhaavnaa and the collaborating organisation.
Hosting Programs at Sambhaavnaa: Like-minded organisations can organise their own issue-based workshops, organisational meetings or retreats at the Institute campus. Sambhaavnaa Institute will charge the costs for lodging and boarding facilities as well as other campus facilities for such programs.
We follow the following process for these kind of colloberations:
- Concept Note and Budget: A brief concept note (mostly about a page or two) that explains the purpose of the program, the participants’ profile, and the outline of the methodology by the organisation/individual proposing the idea(s). For we need to know that there is some of kind of learning that is taking place, or even if the idea is that of a ‘retreat’, it needs to have some structure. We do not look at the idea of providing the campus for recreational purposes too amicably.
- Governing Body Approval: The concept note and budget are discussed and ironed out with the collaborating individual/organisation and sent to the Governing Body for approval. The governing body will scan it – to decipher in case there is a mismatch with organisation’s principles, vision or the budget has some issues (has to match the not-for-profit principle).
- Release of Program Advert: The Governing Body takes 3-4 days to respond; and if there are no objections, then we can finalize the invite/call for applications and release the flyer.
Post-approval process:
- Outreach: Done by Sambhaavnaa (offline, Social Media, e-mailers) and the collaborating organisation.
- Selection of Participants and registrations: Handled by Sambhaavnaa or/and collaborating individual/organisation.
