Aug 26th & 27th, 2023 saw the culmination of the 5th cohort of Reap Benefit's #SolveNinja #Leadership #Accelerator! When 28 youth from 15 states across India solve the community problems in civic and climate change, starting from their neighborhood, come together to master skills of problem solving, scaling initiatives, funding, inner game, and creating enterprises - it is a pot of Leadership In Action. There is something that keeps these youth glued to the problems they are solving. This program democratizes the opportunity to develop solutions for the youth from diverse backgrounds. The youth here represent diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. We have youth from both rural and urban areas. Even though they are different, what unites them is the passion for civic and environmental problems that is plaguing our society. Across these 5 Cohorts, 62 Changemakers have participated, with about 25 of them starting their entrepreneurial journey. They have been working on issues such as Education, Waste Management, Stubble Burning, Menstruation and Hygiene, Schemes and Policies, Mental health, Agriculture, Eco Tourism etc. Deepest gratitude to Porticus, Rohini Nilekani Philanthropies, Rainmatter, Kuldeep Dantewadia, Gautam Prakash, Ashish VR, Pooja Pawar, Abhimanyu Rathi, Rajat Kukreja, Nishanth Nagesh, Joseph Philip, Baiju Balan, Rizwan Pasha, Poonam Chakraborty Navneet Kaur Ritika Gupta (She/Her) for supporting these young #SolveNinjas in their journey in the last 6 months and in Utsav. #youthleadership #changemakers #civicengagement #leadership
