[Reader-list] [Announcements] Call for Nominations - Youth Yatra

[vimlendu jha]

Dear Friends,

Please find the 'Call for Nominations' for this very interesting project we
are doing this year. We plan to undertake a *Yamuna Yatra*, yet again - this
time with diverse backgrounds and nationalities. Participants would
primarily be from 4 countries - India, Sri Lanka, Finland and UK- and should
be a *young journalist or a community worker*.

Having said that, we are in the process of selecting people for this journey
and the project. If you know of someone who would be interested in this or
would be able to gain something from this endeavor, please forward the mail
to them. Interested organisations could nominate someone for the project
too. We just have *six *positions in India and need to freeze it at the
earliest.
Please spread the word around, and feel free to get back to me for any
clarification!

Regards
vimlendu
