What is Samvad?
E-samvad is a curation of critical intellectual discourse that helps you manifest your thoughts in the form of a dialogue and encourages discussion with other individuals.
The samvad on Liberty and Literacy is going to be a discussion on proving that literacy is a pathway to freedom, the yearning an individual gets enlightened with, and how this largely focuses on the freedom that comes with educating oneself. There is a crossover between these two terms and this is why we need to establish a dialogue to understand the importance. Furthermore, we will be exploring the role of globalization and how it has played a role in increasing the standards of literacy.
