Are you concerned about global warming and climate change, loss of
biodiversity, social injustice and exploitation created by huge companies,
and the rapid disappearance of cultural diversity? Do you wish you could
spend your time learning about your passion, using your hands, heart and
head, getting real feedback from people who care about you, meeting
like-minded and motivated youth with whom you could co-create new
possibilities? Would you like to build healthy and resilient communities,
try out your ideas and put them into action, find interesting groups who
could support and energize you, and start your own ‘green’ business?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, Swaraj University may be the
right place for you. Swaraj University uses a self-design learning approach
in which each learner is encouraged to explore their own learning styles,
questions and passions without the institutional constraints that smother
interest and joy, and breed mediocrity. We will use the close, supportive
learner community as a base from which to engage with local, regional and
global communities. At Swaraj you can explore and practically learn about:
organic farming and stores, zero waste crafts, community media, self-healing
techniques and products, cooking with indigenous local grains and healthy
foods, eco-building and renewable energy, natural fabrics and fashions,
beyond schooling, and more!

This life changing program will make you a pro at: starting a local
community-based enterprise of your dream and raising enough resources to
help it thrive, working for leading social organizations in India, getting
fellowships for launching social innovation ideas, and being an active part
of larger social movements.
