For groups of 10-24 participants- We offer our “Insights Abroad-India program for cultural immersion and volunteering work opportunities”. This is a structured program specially designed for a group as per the following details:-
This program is designed as a three-weeks experiential learning activity (can be extended up to six weeks) focused on the rich cultural heritage of the greater Jaipur region of India. Specific cultural items to be explored include:)
- Arts and crafts including puppet-making, block printing, blue pottery, miniature painting, Tie & Dye Textiles, Batik Painting workshop etc.
- Visual and performing arts including dance, drama, puppet shows, storytelling, visit to local folk artist’s colony etc.
- Architecture and design including field-trips to local palaces, gardens, historic buildings, and other sites of architectural interest.
A second component of the program is aimed at exposing these participants to some of the rural communities in South Rajasthan. Incorporating a short rural home-stay component would allow these individuals to join host families in their daily chores of life, do some volunteer work at different sites and gain some vital insights into the development issues that face certain Indigenous communities in this area.
The Volunteer work opportunities may include the following:)
- Teaching English/ sports/play-way method of learning in local community school to the children from indigenous communities.
- To help in construction/ repair work in local village schools.
- Help in building Check dams and gully plugs for irrigation and repair of hand pumps etc.
- Interactive sessions with subsistence farmers in recently opened Farmer schools to promote innovative and eco-friendly agrarian practices. The participants could be attached with these schools and they can interact and exchange knowledge with local farmers.
- During harvesting season, the participants can join their host families and help them at their farms.
We will encourage the participants, in general, to join daily chores of life with their host families during the village stay.
