Program Details

This is a center for experiential, lifelong learning and sustainable living located in the peaceful Dhamapur village in Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra, India. Our education is related to our Mother Earth & nobody should be forced to leave his village for bread, butter & education. None should be detached from his Mother soil for the sake of keeping body and soul together. We had, in days of yore, excellent architects, super human, medical men, amazing space walkers, all that in villages. None of the great that time had to leave their villages.
