A seed in the mind - that's the most beautiful feeling to experience. A had a little idea - what if this episode is not meant to end here with just justice for Champa... I couldn't help but keep reminiscing all the wonderful dogs back in WSD kennel. I looked round and wondered what if this happened again, may be with Boney or Fanny? I realized that for me, the job was far from done.
Through my years in Graduation, I spent most of my time outside the Institute and dabbled in a range of social development activities. Youth To Youth, my our very own NGO was started together with Ameya Jagtap, Rucha Nirakar, Alok Gavhane and others, as an initiative for inter-disciplinary approach to social development by students from various academic backgrounds.
My life took a turn in 2009 as I began Post Graduate studies at National Institute of Design (NID), Ahmedabad. At NID, I was pleasantly surprised to see Graphic Design play an inherent role in social design; NID encouraged me weave my skill with my passion. I was thus motivated to take my first two projects on the subjects 'Child Sexual Abuse' and 'Solid Waste Management'.
It so happened that I was grappling with subject for my next classroom project at the same time as I was dealing with Champa's incident. I contacted the CEO of WSD Mr. Abodh Aras for a meeting. Initially I only thought of making a non-academic project where I would create a web based resource for easily accessing animal helplines. Over the time the idea shaped up, which I shared my idea with my academic Guide Mr. Rupesh Vyas who welcomed it as a topic for my 3rd Classroom Project. I gradually developed the concept and soon contacted Mr. Abodh Aras for a second meeting.
