The UnConference was held at Chennai on Saturday the 17th Jan 2009. 100 leaders/founders representing 35 social service organisations participated in the event. These 35 organisations are backed by nearly 10,000 young professionals and students. These organisations are already in social service activities silently and they are already working in 500 plus projects covering 1.5 laksh beneficiaries, with funds outlay of Rs.50 lakhs. (with own / sponsored funds without any Govt. support) The purpose of this UnConference was to synergise the creativity of the youth and the expertise of elders. Many eminent people participated in the event and shared their experiences. The day long event provided great opportunity for the youth leaders to develop strategies for working together with other like minded organisations for achieving Developed India by 2020. During the morning session, Dr Y S Rajan (Co-author of the book India 2020 with Dr Kalam) interacted with the participants over phone from Delhi. In the afternoon session, Dr Abdul Kalam, interacted with them for more than 20 minutes and shared his views over phone, from Delhi. He also administered an oath to all - "I can do it; We can do it; India can do it:". The participants repeated the slogan in loud voice jointly with Dr Kalam three times. At the end of the day, the participants returned home with charged energy and with more motivation to achieve their goal. We will be releasing the most inspiring interaction session with Dr Abdul Kalam separately. Meanwhile, we are releasing the 4 minutes visual feature telecast by Kalaignar TV in their news channel on this event today. Though, the narration is in Tamil, you can watch this visuals to understand the magnitude of the event.
