Unisciti al liceale bengalese Dia Z. Panakkat in una passeggiata attraverso i bassifondi di Ejipura - forse il più grande quartiere svantaggiato del Bengalese. Qui si concentrano le sfide della scarsa infrastruttura, dello sviluppo incontrollato e della migrazione urbana su larga scala. La povertà e gli effetti associati sono ovunque. Eppure, questo è anche un luogo dove lo spirito umano trionfa sulle avversità. Ci fermeremo al centro comunitario swabhimaan - dove i bambini di tutte le età del quartiere vengono per lezioni curricolari e programmi doposcuola. Ci fermeremo poi alla Clinica Swabhimaan - dove i medici consultano e distribuiscono medicinali al prezzo tutto compreso di Rs. 10 (12 centesimi) per visita. Infine ci fermeremo al centro di distribuzione alimentare swabhimaan dove vengono servite gratuità ai più bisognosi. Dia e un altro volontario swabhimaano ti guideranno attraverso i siti. Tutti i proventi sono restituiti alle persone della comunità attraverso Swabhimaan Trust, un'organizzazione no-profit che lavora a Ejipura dal 2002.

I bassifondi di Ejipura sono forse i più grandi di Bangalore. Le sfide della scarsa infrastruttura, dello sviluppo incontrollato e della migrazione urbana su larga scala si concentrano qui. La povertà e gli effetti associati sono ovunque. Tuttavia, questo è anche un luogo in cui lo spirito umano trionfa sulle avversità. Ci fermeremo al centro comunitario di Swabhimaan, dove i bambini di tutte le età del quartiere vengono per lezioni curriculari e programmi di doposcuola. Incontrerai insegnanti e volontari che lavorano duramente per migliorare le prestazioni degli studenti. Ci fermeremo quindi alla clinica Swabhimaan, dove i medici consultano e distribuiscono medicinali a un prezzo tutto compreso di Rs. 10 (12 centesimi) a visita. Infine ci fermeremo al centro di distribuzione di generi alimentari di Swabhimaan, dove vengono serviti generi di prima necessità gratuiti ai più bisognosi.

A very interesting and informative tour of a lesser-traveled part of Bangalore. Organized by a non-profit that supports the local residents, it offers a respectful glimpse into their daily lives, challenges, and ingenuity. Come with an open mind, and you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation and a rewarding experience. Highly recommended!

I was grateful for the opportunity to experience this tour. It gave me a genuine insight into a side of Bengaluru I hadn’t experienced before, while showcasing the incredible work of the Swabhimaan NGO. Learning how they support local families through education, healthcare and food programs to help address everyday challenges and improve access to opportunity was both inspiring and humbling. Walking through Ejipura with Dia and Venkat, their stories brought the community to life. The warmth with which they were greeted by residents spoke volumes about the trust and respect they’ve earned. I left with a deeper appreciation of the resilience, generosity and spirit of this remarkable community. I highly recommend this tour.
This is an incredible tour opportunity. You get to meet people in the community who are running businesses, volunteering with a healthcare team, leading in the daycare program. You also get to meet and talk with the organization helping to care for and inspire these local families. I got to meet with the director of the NGO and one of his partners and got to talk with the healthcare volunteers and ask them questions. If there’s any tour that you take in Bengaluru, please include this one in your list. It’s truly special and eye-opening. Highly recommend!!
The walk through Ejipura was a unique experience. We got to see a school class and interact with the kids from the 9th grade. They asked questions, we asked questions, the kids were very interested and very cute. We also got to see a health station, and many more things. Our guide Ashif was a very nice person and told us many things about Ejipura. When you visit Bangalore please go to this tour. It helps the community there and you will learn a lot about slums in India.
The work done by the association Swabhimaan is amazing, we had a very good (and emotional time) together, I strongly recommand you to do this visit when visiting Bangalore. No doubt I will come back when I come back to Bangalore.
If you only do one tour when you are in Bengaluru then this is the one. It’s a very informative, respectful and compassionate glimpse of real life for many people in the city and the work that is done to help support people living in poverty. The people involved in the project are incredibly empathic and passionate about supporting the community and they have a great rapport with residents and visitors. It isn’t at all voyeuristic, and it is a great opportunity for visitors to learn. It’s going to take some time to process. Thank you so much to all involved.
It has been a wonderful experience to hear from all these people that have such a heart for this place and all the good work they do. They are so ingrained into the community that is was very interesting to hear from them. It was very enlightening to also see the other side of this city and get a feeling how people live in these areas. Thank you all for the amazing experience! It has been amazing. Definitely a must do if you are in Bengalore.
I highly recommend taking this walking tour through Ejipura Slums. I am aware that very often a slum tour can feel patronising and voyeuristic but this entire experience was incredibly raw, and passionately genuine. Overall, it is a must do if you want to see real people rising above their situation with hope and determination. The NGO is superbly managed by the amazing Venkat. What a truly inspirational man! The gentle and enthusiastic way he greeted members of the community spoke volumes about his respect and dedication to this project. Equally as impressive was the tour leader Sharif who was warm, knowledgeable and entirely committed to the community of Ejipura. I left feeling totally in awe of the work that is being done to empower all of the community to rise above their poverty through education and initiaves far superior to work I have observed in other NGO’s. Please support this project by taking the tour and educating yourself about the situation here. I can assure that you will leave feeling you have gained knowledge, compassion and total admiration for both the community and the incredible Sharuf and Venkat.
