Invitation to Kahani in Mumbai, Stories that Inflate Your Brand

"I work hard, want quick results and deserve success," says 35 year old entrepreneur Alicia. But her customers don't bother to see her brand the way she sees it. They don't seem to agree that her brand message is worth their time. The result is an obvious downward spiral for Alicia and many like her in varied professions. Ever wondered why some brands make it big and some fail miserably? Is it always about the product/ service or is there something more to it ? Are marketing techniques of the yesterday any bit relevant today? Glaring, in-your-face messages are passé...even offensive to your clients/ customers. 'Conventional ways are dead'.

Green Alert

It is indeed rightly said that childhood is a magic period! It is a time when when the child's imagination has no limits and her thinking is most beautiful. Given anything to make something creative out of anything, she will without doubt come out with some or the other adorable souvenir! This is what was experienced by the members and volunteers of the Delhi Greens 'Waste to Magic' project team while conducting a workshop at the Bal Bharti Public School, Pitampura. The Waste to Magic workshop turned out to be (what is usually is) an exciting and interactive exchange of concerns and ideas about creative ways of reducing, reusing and recycling our 'waste'.

Workshop on ‘Environments and Histories’ at NMML

Events

The Nehru Memorial Museum and Library (NMML) cordially invite all interested to a Workshop on Environment and Histories! The linkages between environments and histories may seem self-evident but require careful thought and rigour. How human actions do or do not transform environments for better or for worse is a central issue of our times. Yet, the past is critical not only to understand the changing nature of contending visions of the future but to assess how, why and where specific choices are made about interventions. A discussion of the relations between ecology and history can help do much more than shed light on nature's pasts. The papers to be presented will help highlight different facets and issues. For instance, a dialogue across what are often sharp dividing lines of anc
