ILYW Episode 21 – Ashraf Patel and Arjun Shekhar | I Love Youth Work

On today’s episode, Robin and Bob speak with Ashraf Patel and Arjun Shekhar about youth work in India and the role of the youth worker in the new world of open, freely-accessible knowledge. Ashraf and Arjun are the founders of #Pravah, an organisation which initiates young people into practical decision-making within a complex context of social problems, and #ComMutiny, an association of youth collectives. This recording was at #CCYW2018 where Ashraf and Arjun presented some aspects of their work in India, including the “Be a Jagrik” project and the concept of the 5th Space.
