  • I am a proud Wiki Ambassador. I have promoted WE at Nirmala Higher Secondary School. A team of school students, led by Darsana Joseph, under my guidance is using their wiki skills, where Residence Associations and Local Officials cooperate with the students to convert food waste to bio-gas and manure.
  • As a Resource Person training college teaching staff, I have introduced WE to the teaching staff of Sacred Heart College, St. Teresa's College and St. Peter's College.
    As the first step, I have enrolled the Principal and students of the college to a face-to-face eL4C49 Wikibuddy training. This should pave the way for the teaching staff to enroll and acquire Wiki Editing Skills at "A Gift of Knowledge" project shortly.

I plan to exemplify the activites of WE at Sacred Heart College, promote the WikiBuddy activities of my Alma Mater to energize and invite teaching staff of all colleges in the state to WE.
