We were a small group of development activists working on participatory training, cultural action, people’s theatre, education, documentation, organising the rural poor, campaigns, networking and support services. We had been meeting at various fora, and had, over a period of time shared a critique of modern developments in the global and local context, as well as our own work. These discussions and reflections on our work, exposed the inadequacies of the then purely class understanding of the society on which our logic and strategy of most of our work rested upon.
We felt and knew that something else also needed to be done.
Some of us got together and purchased and located ourselves on a 32-acre, dry, barren land in Anantapur district, South India. The idea, was to initiate an experiment in healing and regenerating it while creating an agro forest habitat.
