Every year, Visions members come to India and, in association with various schools and colleges, conduct interactive sessions for the staff and students. This year, an eight-member team spent one and a half months in Delhi. The team members included Indian students studying at the University of North Carolina, University of Pennsylvania, Tufts University, Dartmouth College, Brown University, Yale University, and Oberlin College. Every year, a different set of students makes the trip, to different cities in the country. They have so far covered Bangalore, Mumbai and New Delhi.
Visions has some hard-hitting facts and figures to explain exactly why.
India has 8 million HIV cases. Obviously, we have an AIDS crisis looming over our heads. Since there is no cure, prevention and education is the only way to control this ever increasing number. Visions uses the young to educate the young. All the delegates are between 19 to 22 years of age, and can answer those queries and address those issues that teachers are embarrassed to address.
