Peacework

06/12/2026

For the past four weeks, students from the McCombs School of Business, The University of Texas at Austin have been interning with PRAVAH in New Delhi, applying their business skills while supporting youth leadership and social entrepreneurship initiatives across India.

Working alongside Pravah's team, students have contributed to projects in human resources, training, marketing, and organizational development, while also participating in field visits that provide a deeper understanding of youth-centered development work on the ground.

With just two weeks remaining, we are proud of all they have accomplished and grateful to Pravah for providing such a meaningful international learning experience!

Last week was filled with learning, connection, and growth! 🍯📊

We were honored to support an incredible group of Business students from the Miami Herbert Business School as we partnered with Pueblo a Pueblo to share valuable tools and knowledge for their community projects. Volunteers supported financial literacy and entrepreneurship training for local beekeepers, youth leaders, and women’s savings groups, helping strengthen skills while generating new ideas for future growth and community impact. The group also experienced an Apitourism tour, learning more about beekeeping, sustainability, and local entrepreneurship. 🐝✨

A huge thank you to our local partners Pueblo a Pueblo for making this meaningful exchange possible and for their continued commitment to community-led development. 🌎🤝
