Amplifying Voices is back in India! It’s been six months since Jon visited, and he’s excited to see the progress that Seva Social Welfare Foundation has made. Amplifying Voices, formerly HCR, is about journeying with partners as they build capacity, equipping local people to make a meaningful social impact within their communities. Just as Amplifying Voices is journeying with Seva (meaning ‘service’), I am journeying with Jon.

It’s hard to find many places on the planet today that don’t have access to some form of media.  However in remote parts of India’s Maharashtra state, many indigenous tribal or Adivasi communities don’t have access to radio, television or even mobile ‘phones.  Many can’t read.

It’s for that reason that Amplifying Voices, in partnership with Seva Social Welfare Foundation, has begun a project to distribute “speaker boxes” with content that will transform lives.
