Kirrt Yatra 2026

Kirrt Yatra grows from years of grassroots engagement in Punjab through Sanjhi Sikhiya’s work in public education and youth leadership. Our experience has shown that meaningful change requires proximity. Not just support from afar, but direct engagement with communities, institutions, and the systems shaping everyday life.

Through earlier Punjab Yatras across 18+ districts, we saw how immersive journeys deepen understanding, build lasting relationships, and inspire sustained commitment to community work. Kirrt Yatra builds on that foundation, with a curated cohort focused on learning, reflection, and hands-on engagement inspired by Guru Nanak Sahib’s principle of Kirrt.

Why This Project Matters? What makes it important?

Punjab carries a deep legacy of resilience and community strength while navigating challenges in education, agriculture, migration, and public health. Addressing these issues requires collaboration between community leaders, youth, institutions, and thoughtful professionals.

Kirrt Yatra creates space for this collaboration through immersion in villages and grassroots initiatives across Punjab. Participants engage directly with communities, contribute through small social action projects, and gain grounded perspective on the region’s realities and possibilities.

The journey strengthens both learning and action.
