Our second year of “Guts” Fellowship has started!
Platforms like Fellowships stay very far out of reach from youth who come from Nomadic Denotified Adivasi communities, despite their rich lived experiences. Using a “No Criteria” entry process, we are continuing in this year too, to reach a very wide intersection of youth including tent dwelling, forest dwelling , disaster, violence and extreme crises survivors.
There are many groups whose guts and courage to access their rightful resources, platforms, representation, leadership, participation have been eroded over generations of violent denial of these accessibilities. This Fellowship is a small effort towards such Guts and courage building so that they can claim their spaces and presence.
