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.
