Youth Alliance

Humanity faces a civilizational crisis - that is made up with ecological crisis because we are consuming twice more than earth can regenerate; economic inequity because less and fewer people own more and more wealth in the world; political polarization because nationalistic identity-based division is rising world over and even spiritual crisis because we feel more and more alienated from our own selves. At the base of it, lies a pattern of the human mind which manifests through all our collective actions, institutions and narratives. What does it mean to prepare our young people to enable humanity to transition from life-threatening industrial society to a life-sustaining one? Too large, too long term? 
 Youth Alliance, over a decade old youth ecosystem is striving to raise inner consciousness in young people to respond to these crises with courage, service and audacious imagination. The key focus is to shift their paradigm from consumption to contribution, isolated self-interest to community cooperation and from blaming to serving. In the new techno-reality that our world is more and more living into - Youth Alliance is keeping alive faculties that make us human. We do this through:<ol><li>Creating Immersive Experiences for young people to feel the nature of challenges. </li><li>Cultivating Community for them to continuously build their capacity to connect at a deeper level.</li><li>Movement building with like-minded organizations to act together as an ecosystem.</li><li>Building Narrative and a new story which is based on interconnectedness rather than separation.</li><li>Experimentation to learn to disrupt age-old belief systems and create new ones.</li></ol> 
 So far, We have worked with over 750 young people through immersive journeys, over 340 of them have chosen to not pursue corporate careers and contribute full-time to social change as educators, environmentalists, healers, intrapreneurs, artists and so on. <ol><li>Over 35 started their own organizations.</li><li>Over 75 are intrapreneurs in established organizations.</li><li>More than 62% of people come back to reconnect with the community.</li><li>Over 100* have contributed to creating future journeys for more young people.</li><li>3 alumni organizations regenerated Gramya Manthan like immersive journeys in different regions.</li></ol>With a strong team in place, developed curriculum, deeply connected alumni community, collaborative relationships across the movement and with your support, we wish to continue to impact the world through young people.Know more about our programmes here: https://www.youthallianceofindia.org/

Leadership in young people based in humanness

"My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together" said Desmond Tutu the co-creator of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_and_Reconciliation_Commission_(South_Africa)" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Truth &amp; Reconciliation Commission</a> in South Africa, the most prominent experiment of restorative justice.Youth Alliance, for the past 11 years is an ecosystem of young people across India, practising humanness in varied socio-cultural-economic contexts. The journey of a young person in Youth Alliance begins with an 10-day immersive leadership journey like Gramya Manthan and Earth Shastra in remote geographies of India. Then they become part of a closely-knit intentional community of 750+ young people tied together by common values and purpose - living and leading towards harmony with self, other and nature.

Dearest Supporters, As our crowdfunding process for 2021 concluded with Give India's Fundraising Challenge, we are happy to share that in a period of 2 months, we have been able to raise Rs. 5.8 lakhs with the support of 87 donors. We are extremely grateful to all of you who donated as well as to our alumni who helped us raise funds with their supporting campaigns. As the times of uncertainty continue to loom over us, this support brings us a lot of strength. Here are some things that have been happening at Youth Alliance as we find ourselves in this transition to a Post-covid world: Earth-Shastra (Online)- The 4th edition of one of our flagship programs Earth-Shastra has been happening in collaboration with Bhoomi College. It has been extremely enriching to co-create such a meaningful immersive experience online with people who want to deepen their relationship with nature and understand the intersection of Ecology, Economics and the human self. This week we will be concluding this 10-week long journey. Visit to Kanpur and Lucknow- Last month, 3 of our team members visited the villages of Kanpur where we Gramya Manthan has been taking place for the past 9 years. Going back after 2 years, it was reaffirming to know that the trust, intimacy and dialogue with the community continue to deepen and how eagerly they look forward to have us back with participants.This was followed by a visit to Swatantra Talim in Lucknow, founded by 2 of our alumni- Ridhi and Rahul. For the past 8 years, they have been working with the children of villages of Seetapur district to make education more inclusive, experiential and accessible. We also got to witness a beautiful community interconnection as 2 of our other alumni Abhishek and Amarjeet facilitated a toy making workshop with adolescents.  An Abridged Gramya Manthan- This June, we are hoping to go back to the villages and have Gramya Manthan in an abridged form. Keeping the safety of everyone and the current surge of Covid cases in mind, we will be able to have a clearer picture in the coming weeks. We will keep you updated with more through our newsletters. The receipts of donations made till 14th March have been issued from Give India and the rest shall be sent soon. Please get back to us in case of any query. Gratitude,Team Youth Alliance.
