Earthlinks UK / Earthlinks India : East-West Projects    

                                                        

 

Earthlinks is working with the growing need across the world to connect grassroots level projects.

 

Traditional Western approaches can often seek solutions in science and through imposed hierarchical structures.  Traditional Eastern approaches seek solutions in ancient values represented in community, participative approaches, and shared leadership.   

 

Earthlinks and its projects are drawing upon the best from these two traditions, to provide significant and measurable development benefits to communities on both sides of the globe.

 

Earthlinks has set up a Charitable Trust that is facilitating links between projects in India and  projects in the UK .
