We aggressively promote an inter-faith understanding of human values. At our First
Convocation of Manovikas-IGNOU Community College; a Dance Drama
incorporating many faiths including minority faiths like Jews and Buddhists was presented
Initiating inter-faith understanding
Establishing contacts with Industry
Many years ago – 26 to be exact, speaking at the seminar on Vocational Training at NIVH, I had spoken of moving away from A-B-C: Agarbatti, Brooms and Candles and to take up D for Dusters to dust away the cobwebs of the mind.
We talked to industry captains, experts in skills training, management professionals and to those who are specialists in Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences theory .
Howard Earl Gardner (born July 11, 1943) is the John H. and Elisabeth A. Hobbs Professor of Cognition and Education at the Harvard. The author of over twenty books translated into over thirty languages, he is best known for his theory of Multiple Intelligences, as outlined in his book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences (1983).
Establishing contacts with Industry … contd
We researched abilities and natural intelligences of our DD people and through interaction with them, realised that they enjoy meeting and networking with people (maybe with the exception of autistic people).
So we focussed on skills training that would get them jobs and therefore – another D: DIGNITY
Establishing contacts with Industry … contd
So we arrived at a training curriculum for Hospitality, Retail, IT and a few others.
At the same time, we started our interactions with the corporate world and today those who get trained at our Manovikas get snapped up by industry. In fact, there is a demand for more employees: we are not able to cope!!!!
Establishing contacts with Industry … contd
In our training, corporate experts, including Phds in the relevant subjects, industry seniors and such higher-ranking professionals become our specialised Faculty.
A marvellous example of PPP.

Involving the Mediagetting them to spread the word…
Too numerous to enumerate here.Suffice to place on record that Star TV, Aaj Tak, Sahara Samay, Doordarshan and local channels
in television;98.4 and AIR in radio,
Numerous internet news sites,Newspapers like Indian Express, The Hindu,
Deccan Herald, Dainik Jagran, Pioneer, Hindustan Times, Malayalam Manorama and so
on… covered us.Did not happen by itself. We assertively made a Media Plan with the help of professionals and
implemented it.
Making information about ourselves available for general dissemination
So we constantly bring out publications; recently we made a short documentary film ‘Joyful Living’ which was premiered in San Francisco and received excellent reviews. We are in
the process of publishing a Newsletter which would be easily understandable by the select target audience. It would
combine pictorials with the written word.
Our goal is straightforward:to make life meaningful for our Manovikas family.
and to create only such smiling faces and WINNERS
thanks you
