Cross cultural learning in development issues
CARPED and AIESEC - an international youth exchange programme - have been engaged in facilitating students from developed and developing countries in understanding and promotion of development issues. Youth are provided internship by CARPED to learn from field studies in a variety of development issues focused on child rights, elementary education, participatory natural resource development, tribal development, health etc. These youth engage in three months to a year and learn from fieldwork.
Besides, CARPED is part of the AIESEC's Learning Partners programme to sensitize AISEC's members on development issues and the role of NGOs and civil society. This consists of periodic lectures, dialogue, and field exposure programmes for student youth of Hyderabad.
CARPED facilitated cross cultural understanding and participatory research since 1999. Mr. Christoph from Switzerland supported by Intercooperation and a Swiss University and Ms. Christine a French social scientist have earlier studied scope and approaches of marginalized communities in the area of livelihoods based on forests and natural Resource Management.
