Raleigh India Expedition 12J: Welcome to India

Raleigh India

Raleigh is a youth and education charity with 26 years experience in providing adventurous and challenging expeditions for people from all backgrounds, nationalities and ages, especially young people.

Raleigh India launched in February 2008. In just two years its expeditions and volunteer projects have grown beyond all expectation. So has our understanding of the importance of our presence here.

India witnesses a huge disparity between the urbanised wealthy and the rural poor. Although government initiatives are targeting this and attempting to redress the balance; changing an embedded culture and reversing the tide in a sub-continent as huge as India is not a fast process.

Through concentrated and sustained efforts our project groups have begun to make a tangible difference in the areas Raleigh India has focused. By partnering with both local grass roots NGOs, government agencies such as the Ministry for Environment and Forests and international NGOs like the World Wide Fund for Nature, Raleigh has been able to access and address some core issues here in India.

And now there's a brand new adventure in partnership with the UK Government! Check out the Raleigh India ICS blog for all the action from our teams of volunteers at http://raleighindiaics.blogspot.in/

Namaskaara!
