A true highlight of my journey through South Asia: a Digital Media Literacy Workshop Workshop at Shree Mangal Dvip School in Kathmandu, Nepal. Made possible by support by Fulbright South Asia and CalArts, Project Ahimsa enabled Fulbright Scholar Robin Sukhadia, Neelanjana Banerjee, and Tom Leeser to spend 7 days at Shree Mangal Dvip School (www.himalayanchildren.org) teaching HD video recording, sampling, and poetry. SMD school, founded by Thrangu Rinpoche, serves 600 children from the rural and remote parts of Nepal.

About me
Project Ahimsa is a global effort to empower youth through music. The organization was founded in 2001 in response to the violent attacks on Sikhs and South Asians after 9/11. The organization operates under the auspices of the Patel Foundation for Global Understanding, a registered 501c3 non-profit based in Tampa, FL. Project Ahimsa’s mission is to empower youth though developing and supporting community based music education.
