Introducing BETTER CAMPUS: Is Your College Doing Work the Rest of India Should See?
On campuses across India, some of the most meaningful work is happening far beyond classrooms and course credits.
It’s happening in student clubs that stay back after lectures to plan community drives. In hostel rooms, where someone is building a prototype with whatever they can afford. In libraries where research turns into a real solution. In canteens where conversations become collectives. In corridors where a small idea finds a team and becomes a movement.
Better Campus is The Better India’s way of bringing these stories into the national spotlight. It is a nationwide storytelling series for India’s universities and colleges, built to celebrate changemakers and the work they are doing in sustainability, social impact, innovation, inclusion, and everything that makes campus life more humane and more hopeful.
At its simplest, Better Campus is a promise: if something inspiring is happening on your campus, it deserves to be seen; clearly, credibly, and with the kind of storytelling that helps others learn from it.
Every day, across universities and colleges, students and faculty are building solutions that deserve a national stage. Not someday after they graduate. Not once it becomes big. Right now.
It could be a student team that creates a waste system so workable that it changes everyday habits on campus. It could be a professor or mentor who helps first-generation learners find their footing and opens doors they didn’t think were meant for them. It could be a research group building something that makes life safer, cleaner, or easier, and taking it beyond the pages of papers into real use. These stories carry effort, intent, and outcomes. They also carry possibility.
Better Campus exists to find these stories, document them, and take them beyond the campus gate —........© The Better India
