Department of Stories
Stories are everywhere, they shape our worldview and nourish our imagination.
The department of stories encourages us to paint a picture of the society we would like to live in: our view of the ideal society of the future. It could be imaginary and futuristic, but when told in a compelling manner, it is one step closer to becoming a reality.

At the Department of Solutions, we attempt to solve the community’s most challenging problems. We, the solvers, are fundamental pillars of any community’s growth. We are identified as social entrepreneurs, engineers, or sometimes just tinkers.

They always say that ‘the journey is worth taking’.
The quest of the Department of Journeys is to carefully curate pathways that will unfold for you to explore the world through meaningful interactions. These routes have been handpicked by distilling the experience of those who have delved into complex social issues and pioneered change.

The Creative Leadership Program was really good, the best things about the program was how it was designed. It included all the things which were needed, and according to me for the first time the program delivered what it promised. It moved me totally.
