An initiative by barefoot college and JECRC University.
Mr. Subrojit, head of educational cell at barefoot visited the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication, on January 3, 2019.
The barefoot college is a platform which connects rural communities to education, professions and advocacy. Many individuals control their lives and the well being of communities. Mr. Subrojit was given a warm welcome by the Department and after visiting the studio he got to know about some amazing activities which takes place like the daily newspaper which is known as "The Message" is being published by the students every working day and he listened to the radio bulletin which is known as "The Voice" on the SoundCloud recorded by the students. He also appreciated The TV talk which is being hosted by the students of third year of BAJMC Department. He was glad to know about the books being written and published by the students. For more than 40 years , the Barefoot College has designed new ways to nurture and support a journey to empowerment, one village at a time , one woman at a time. We demystify and decentralize the technology and put new tools in the hands of the rural poor with a singular objective of spreading self-sufficiency and sustainability. With a geographic focus on the least developed countries , we train women worldwide as solar engineers, innovators and educators, who then return to their villages to bring electricity.
