This book documents the experiences of the Tarunaee initiative undertaken by PUKAR in 2004-05 for the youth of Mumbai. From her vantage point as the coordinator of this initiative, Vandana Khare writes about the five research projects – the documentation on the issues they faced in their day to day life including migration, climate change, urbanization and its impacts. Vandana successfully docuements the themes, the end products and more importantly, the process itself – from looking for partner organizations who would participate in this experimental initiative, to helping the participants arrive at research questions, to organizing various workshops to help them achieve their goals.Their journeys of transformation from Me to We and from carefree youth to conscious citizen and a critical thinker makes a inspiring reading.
