Woxven University – Dec 2024

We recently had the pleasure of hosting 23 design students from Woxsen University, Hyderabad, along with their two guides, as part of their industrial tour. The day began with an engaging introduction to Auroville at Auroville Consulting, where the students explored Auroville’s philosophy and practices through an insightful session and an interactive Q&A. This was followed by a hands-on lampshade-making workshop at the Bamboo Centre, where the students discovered the versatility and beauty of bamboo under the guidance of skilled artisans. The day concluded with a serene walk through the Revelation Forest, offering the students a meaningful connection to nature and a deeper understanding of sustainability. This collaboration was a rich exchange of ideas, creativity, and experiential learning, highlighting the importance of sustainable design practices in shaping the future of innovation.

Testimonial:

Vidhya ~ I really like the experience working with bamboo in between the forest and so many bamboo trees.
 
Dedeepya ~ Auroville was a great experience for me! The place was nothing like I’ve seen elsewhere, generous people, responsible consumption and a sustainable civilization, I’m impressed to see Auroville aim to achieve this. Moreover, I had enjoyed visiting the bamboo centre. I not only learnt the importance of versatile bamboo but loved that I could work with it. Wish I could explore more! Maybe if it was a little more budget friendly we could come back for another visit!
 

Sneha ~ The workshop was fun and helpful, making it easy to learn and be creative.
