To explore correlations between the core values, aspirations, and expectations of the Indian youth and the modalities of education and employment policies across India and the UK.
The project included online surveys, a social media campaign across 9 cities (Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad and Pune) and qualitative fieldwork, with Focus Group Discussions and in-depth interviews in Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata and Mumbai. The study helped map possible avenues of synergy between India and UK in the context of youth population. The study attempted to explore correlations between the core values, aspirations and expectations of the Indian youth and the modalities of governance, through which one can get a sense of the reflexive engagement that the Indian citizenship has with the functioning of the state.
