India Redefined www.indiaredefined-a4c.org the movement which I started last year& got award for ,'The Best Humanitarian Initiative of the Year
has started three different projects- "I Care", " Educate India", "Develop Your Village".Join & be with me in Redefining India.
India Redefined draws its inspiration from Gandhian Movement which was a revolution focused on independence. It was also about specific actions like non- cooperation by citizens. We are just trying to apply many Gandhiji's principles’ in this era, in this society and during these times. Maybe in a different flavor! Maybe the context is different! Maybe it’s a different world! But the goal is same! He also wanted India a better place to live in.
Thousands of people have joined this movement across the globe but we have only 37 Chapter co-ordinators till now to take on the responsibility, by rotation in different cities of India.It is voluntary work. If you want to suggest anyone's names for Chapter coordinator, then please send me a mail regarding this at ranjanakanti@indiaredefined-a4c.org

Hi Whitney, Amita Baviskar, a specialist on the question you're researching - Gandhian thought, food sovereignty - will be delivering an Ahimsa Day Lecture on 30th January at the Indraprastha College for Women, Delhi University: "Good to Eat: Gandhi and the Ethics of Food". Other speakers are Purushottam Agrawal (a specialist on Kabir and Gandhi) and Dilip Simeon ('Gandhi's Final Fast'). I'll soon announce the precise time slot on Gandhitopia. We'll record the whole session on video and post it up, like "A Future for Ahimsa" (Jan 30th, 2009).
I'm delighted to see this at UF. Both of my children graduated from there..one in Environmental Engineering; the other from the University Law School. Are you in the Social Sciences Dept? Go Gators!

Dear Miss Whitney,
Iam pursuing my Ph.D on "Gandhi and His Management Philosophies with special reference to Trusteeship". I would be happy if you could help and guide me on this topic.
Dear Whitney,
I find that through swadeshi and his experiments with Control of the Palate, Gandhi left alot of ideas on food sovereignty. In his last years at Sevagram community, he was eating lime juice on Gur or jaggery, as a substitute for fresh fruit, which was very hard to come by there.
I am interested to know what your research has found in this regard.
Best wishes,
Aunty Kamala

A neighbor of mine recently visited a ghandian base community in La Plata missuori, called possibility alliance. They leave off of the grid and use bikes for transportation. Antonio
I would like to hear more about "food sovereignty".
I am working with groups in Kenya to help with hunger. Currently women are brewing and drinking a local fermented brew called "jangaa" which numbs the pain of starvation.
