I arrived at Sambhaavana confused, jobless and in low spirits. I left Sambhaavana almost renewed – in high spirits, with friendships that I know are going to last a lifetime and well, with the beginning of my journey into exploring my worldview and my politics. The good thing about both the 10-day workshop and the […]

संभावना मीलों चलने की संभावना,कुछ अलग सोचने की संभावना,कुछ कर गुजरने की संभावना! मेरे चलने की चाल में , बोलने के ढंग में , सोचने की कला में, एक आतंविश्वास की संभावना! अलग चेहरे, अलग भाषा , अलग सोच, अलग समझ , मगर दिल एक होने की संभावना! समाज की समस्याओं को मिल कर, जड़ […]

The 5 days at Sambhaavnaa was so fulfilling that I am falling short of words 🙂 If I had to describe what Sambhaavnaa Institute means to me, it would be learning about gender, to meeting people doing amazing work in a different part of the country to some very meaningful conversations to building a connection […]

Sambhaavnaa. It’s an institute that thrives to provide learning and sharing space where different minds can come together to deliver what they have learnt and to learn more while delivering, living in a new and exciting environment. What I found at Sambhaavnaa was a similar experience.We began our three-day program at the Institute with an […]

First of all thanks a lot and congrats for the efforts put in arranging such a wonderful experience in the form of a workshop. I am more of a photographer less of activist and I used see photography in a pictorial or composition point of view and through the discussions that went on for 5 […]

May-Junes were always the same. After a truckload of exams, I would be back in Kerala, enjoying the much-awaited monsoon. Usually, rain makes me sad, for reasons I haven’t yet figured out. I still wait for it to get a glance of the plants that grow on its own, the strange flowers you get to […]

This summer, I got an opportunity to work in Chhattisgarh, a place about which we often have a lot of misconceptions. Apart from enjoying the generous hospitality of the people, I got to learn a lot more compared to what I possibly contributed while living and working there. Check out the video if you are curious […]

The Sambhaavnaa experience has had a profound impact on the way I see my milieu and nation now. As a production engineering student, I was getting trained to identify the problems of the industries and work towards eliminating them. But I was equally interested in understanding the problems confronting our society and nation as a […]

When I signed up for the week-long Nayi Dishayein program at Sambhaavanaa, I had no idea what to expect. The description of the workshop sounded really interesting from the website, and I was looking forward to the experience. However, what Sambhaavana gave to us far exceeded anything we could have imagined. The experience of living […]

Nayi Dishayein workshop helped me gain 30 different perspectives on the most relevant socio-economic and environmental issues that India is facing today. These perspectives have shaped my understanding of the issues in a way which cannot be done just by reading about them.

When my friend told me about Sambhaavnaa, I chose the Tribal Rights internship and, thankfully, got selected! What I had expected is mild awareness talked about by people who talk more and do less. What the truth was, was surprising. The days in Sambhaavnaa would begin with doing- which set the tone for the rest […]

Sambhaavnaa is the one place where you can open your mind and experience the power of community and solidarity
