Books and films needed for a resource center (announcement)

by SHABNAM HASHMI

Dear Readers,

Anhad has initiated work in 2 districts in Bihar – Purnea and Araria. Community Development Programme with an emphasis on educating women and youth on democracy, secularism and rights of the marginalized communities is the mainstay of Anhad,s work in Bihar. A resource center for youth is being set up in Purnea which will facilitate the engagement with youth in colleges and schools. The resource center will house a library – books and films, conduct periodic activities – workshops, discussions, cultural events etc. and enable young people to initiate actions within their community for promoting secularism, democracy and human rights.

We request you to contribute in setting up the resource center. We need books – specifically in Hindi – and documentaries and video films on various issues. We welcome both old and new books and request you to send them to Anhad’s office. Alternatively, we can also arrange to pick them up from your place if you intimate us about the same.

Thanks and Regards

Anhad
