Across India’s social impact ecosystem, organisations working in development, migration, livelihoods, education, health, and climate action are producing important work on the ground. Yet many of these efforts remain under-told or insufficiently communicated beyond reports and documentation.
The ability to translate field realities into compelling narratives has therefore become a critical skill for development professionals.
The Migration Story, in collaboration with @presitgeuniversityindia is pleased to announce Narratives for Impact, a two-day intensive workshop on storytelling for development communication professionals
This workshop is designed for:
⚫ Professionals working with non-profits, NGOs and social enterprises
⚫ Communication officers and program associates in development organisations
⚫ Early-career journalists interested in development reporting
⚫ Researchers, fellows and practitioners engaged in migration, livelihoods, public policy
and social impact
⚫ Young professionals seeking to strengthen their development communication skills
📅 April 19–20, 2026
📍 Prestige University, Indore
💰 ₹7,000 (includes accommodation, food & workshop kit)

What happens when 400 parents in a small town start asking the questions no one talks about?
In Jalna, rising youth issues and cheating in schools worried District Collector Ashima Mittal. She brought parents together, 439 questions poured in, and real conversations began.

“I may have pushed away a comfortable life. But as long as books and poetry are on my side, I think I can carry on,” Mohan Das told The Telegraph India.
At 12, he sold paper bags to support his family.
Later, he was attending college by day and serving at a public canteen by evening, and in every spare minute, he picked up a book.
Between Sarat Chandra, Tolstoy, Dickens, he built a world he could call his own.
In the late ’80s, that love became a tiny pavement bookstall at Gariahat. At 31, he wrote his first poem about the life he was living and hasn’t missed a single day in 40+ years.
People come for books and stay for poetry. His only request — read on paper, don’t lose yourself to PDFs.
If you’re in Kolkata, drop by. Mohan Das would have a poem or two to share it with you.💛

Dear friend,
If you couldn't make it to the #UPSC2026 list then trust me the most cringe advice is "try one more time".
The world is big, try something else can be good too.

कई बरसों बाद इस देश में शायद एक साइलेंट फिल्म बनाई गई है.. Gandhi Talks यह फिल्म एक सफल प्रयोग है और इस फिल्म ने बताया कि कैसे बिना एक शब्द का इस्तेमाल किए आप बहुत कुछ कह सकते हैं.. इस देश में वाकई दो गांधी हैं, एक नोट वाले और एक विचार वाले.. यह फिल्म दोनों गांधी की बात करता है! Amazing movie @kishorbelekar and hats off to your entire team! अगर आपके आसपास किसी थिएटर में यह फिल्म लगा हुआ है तो आप ज़रूर सिनेमाघर में इसे दिखाएगा! #GandhiTalks

This 500-year-old stepwell in Gujarat was once a lifeline for the city.
Then it became a dumping ground.
Hidden under layers of waste, with blocked water channels and stagnant water, it had slowly faded from public memory, even though it stood right in the heart of the city.
But change began the day people decided not to look away.
Through #ForceForGood an initiative by The Better India and Aditya Birla Group, 30 volunteers came together with one shared mission: to bring this historic water system back to life.
By the end, 713 kilos of waste were cleared, revealing the stone steps, reopening the channels, and restoring the structure to its original purpose.
With a storage capacity of nearly 2 lakh litres, the stepwell is now ready to hold water again, recharging groundwater, supporting the local ecosystem, and strengthening the city’s water future.
This is proof that it only takes one move to create a movement.

@DeoBasti @ravinitesh @Basti_Bsa @virjeshEdu @EducationMirror I will be happy to help th administration in planning and organising nature trails and educational intervention around this area.
English

I strongly feel that integration of Van Vihars of the city with schools can be exciting and meaningful for #science #education.
Students should be able to appreciate nature and biodiversity for society as a whole to succeed in nature conservation efforts.
