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.
