We successfully completed the Demo.Reset 2.0 Accompaniment Model recently! Over the past five months, we participated in sessions—carried out by the Extituto de Política Abierta team—that were rich in discussion, self-reflection, and invaluable insights. We want to thank the wonderful folks at Extituto for their exceptional guidance and support. They truly created an environment of learning and growth—and enabled us to study deliberative practices more deeply! Special thanks to Andrea Restrepo Toro, Bene Asprilla Mosquera, Avadhut Abhyankar, Kunal Jaiswal and Sanskriti Menon for making the process so enriching! Onwards to putting many of our learnings to action! Antaraa Vasudev Atharva Joshi Mallika Dandekar Vagda Galhotra

#ConsultationUpdate Did you know your feedback can influence policy change? Recent amendments to Rights of Persons with Disabilities(RPwD) Rules, 2017 faced significant pushback from disability rights groups, highlighting the importance of public participation. Your participation in the feedback process and in our focus group discussion with the Politics and Disability Forum played a crucial role in conveying vital feedback to the Ministry, leading to a pause in the amendments. This is a testament to the power of collective action! #PublicParticipation #DisabilityRights #PolicyChange #CommunityEngagement
