The initiative India’s Quest celebrated the anniversary of India’s independence. It provided a rich array of instructional materials and films that engage with the challenges and opportunities in the working of India’s democracy.

India’s Quest used the medium of documentary film to reach out to people, pose incisive questions and catalyze a national debate on key issues such as Enriching Diversity, Universal Responsibility and Nonviolence, Environment and Technology, Pluralism and Gender, Governance and Education.

As part of the Campus Outreach Program, seven half-hour documentary films were screened at campuses across the country, to stimulate debate and discussion on these core issues. The films were also screened on television, at film festivals and other venues that are accessible to a cross-section of communities in India and abroad.

The Society for Promotion of Indian Classical Music and Culture Amongst Youth (SPICMACAY), a nationwide movement of young people, collaborated with the Foundation on the India’s Quest project
