Community Engagement
New generation of students are increasingly unaware of local rural realities
surrounding their HEIs, as rapid urbanization has been occurring in India.
• A large percentage of Indian population continues to live and work in rural
and peri-urban areas of the country. While various schemes and programmes
of community service have been undertaken by HEIs, there may not be a
provision of a well-designed compulsory community engagement course that
provides opportunities for immersion in rural realities.
• Such a course will enable students to learn about rural challenges and
develop understanding of rural wisdom and life-style in a respectful manner
