From experience to knowledge.
From knowledge to capacity.
SVYM's Training & Research ecosystem brings together four decades of field experience, community wisdom and institutional learning — turning them into opportunities for people and organisations to learn, strengthen and contribute.
Our Objective
To build human and social capital by transforming SVYM's lived experience, community knowledge and institutional learning into relevant opportunities for leadership, capacity building, inquiry, exchange and collective growth.
SVYM's learning and capacity-building ecosystem
Training & Research grows from SVYM's work in Health, Education and Socio-economic Empowerment. It is where field experience is reflected upon, organised and shared so that others can build on it.
Training modules, capacity-building workshops, fellowships, internships, research, cultural exchange and focused social-sector engagements bring together practical experience with the ideas of Swami Vivekananda and other Indian thinkers — encouraging competence, responsible citizenship and service.
From experience to knowledge. From knowledge to capacity.
SVYM's field experience and community learning are reflected upon, organised and shared through training, teacher development, cultural exchange, institutional capacity building and other forms of learning that help people and organisations grow.
Focused areas of learning and capacity building
Each platform has a distinct focus and audience, while contributing to the larger purpose of building human and social capital.
