Lucky for us I had the chance to meet Father Jerry very early in our journey of V-ALL in the North East. His insights on the approach and the region really helped us think about what we were structuring and we still made a lot of mistakes. After spending a couple of weeks I realised some very basic things. 1. In the impact space of mainland India we just club it as the North East and it is an after thought, the diversity region. 2. Most organisations from outside working there don't understand the diversity of people. If we say India is diverse, the states in the North East are extremely different. North and South Assam are poles apart from each other forget the other states 3. The youth and people in all the states carry trauma and lived experience that we don't even understand. The challenges are different. All I remember from Father Jerry's, Shannon Massar and a lot of others advice and now from our pilots is to listen and to remember that a cut and paste approach is not going to be the solution. The context is different and without locals to conceptualise the solution, we will never be able to help or cause any impact. For us at V-ALL we now have a local team of 7 interns who will think of what next. #vallindia #theroadahead #startup #socialimpact #vall V-ALL
