Note
from the Director
Rising...
In 1974, Yuvak
Biradari (Bharat) rose to a mission of social
development and youth welfare. Some thought that
it was the need of the hour to deal with the problems
faced by the world but for us they were not problems
but priorities. We joined hands with many, realizing
that collective voices, strengths and energies
are the only way to make a big difference. There
is no single, simple path for reaching the world
of our dreams, but instead, multiple pathways
that would lead toward it. Hence we decided to
concentrate on social, educational and cultural
advancement.
Speeding...
Simple solutions
can speed the process of transforming hopeless
scenarios into bright futures for a civilized
society. Our youth camps and workshops have developed
a generation of responsible citizens. Biradari’s
‘Jodo Bharat’ and ‘Save the
Earth’ campaigns have traversed 35000 kms
in India. The ‘Ek Sur Ek Taal’ value
education programme has charged the spirits of
1.8 million students across India. The social
themes of Biradari’s 2500 cultural presentations
have created long lasting impressions. 150 regular
and ad-hoc centres of Biradari across the country
integrated a large number of members and partners
along the journey that catalyzed the work of the
founders. Proving ourselves in action made it
a delightful journey.
Shaping...
Biradari continues
to strengthen and shape itself in its fourth decade
of action, practice and learning. Globalization
and an urban-rural divide pose new challenges
which lead us to new initiatives like the Nirman
Abhiyaan. Progress is all about changing thoughts
and direction with time. Insaani Biradari has
also come into being so that we can create value
by participation of diverse groups. Along with
building a track record of achievements that make
a positive change, we dream of setting up a ‘Yuva
Gram/ Biradari Gram’ to present a wide range
of opportunities for the growth and welfare of
the international youth community.
