KRIYā
EMPOWERMENT THROUGH ACTION
We’re a group of students and teachers brought together through our school, Mahindra United World College of India, a member of the renowned UWC movement whose mission statement is to “make education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future.”. Through our college we’ve had the opportunity, support and funding to start a student led initiative named Kriyā, to support marginalized women in communities on the perimeter of our home.
