Open Space's youth outreach programme aims to involve young people in activities that pivot on social justice issues, and so to promote their understanding and perhaps involve them as change-makers in society. CCDS manages Open Space, a civil society and youth outreach initiative based in Pune, and also active in Lucknow, Kolkata, Ranchi and Bangalore. OS uses various forms of communication -- literature, cinema, theatre, music, publications, Internet --to reach out to citizens and encourage them to engage with social justice/development issues. They require volunteers to build campaigns to highlight social causes, problem areas and probable solutions. You could set up an Open Space club in your college, screening films, holding discussions, organising campaigns, workshops, theatre, book readings etc that prompt young people to think and act towards social change.
