The stated purpose of a summer internship at IDC was to expose oneself to different design firms in rural and urban sections of society and to understand how design can intervene to bring about constructive changes as per the socioeconomic and cultural context. As a Visual Communication student, I wanted to work with an organisation that is motivated to work for society and uses design intervention to change lives and make a positive social impact rather than just for commercial gain. Working as a designer in the past, I have often been exposed to several Indian crafts and folk arts and have had the privilege of working with them, even on small projects. Ever since, I have been really keen on learning more about them. I wanted to use this internship as a chance to explore this possibility as well. Happy Hands Foundation and The People's Project brilliantly combined these two interests and requirements, while also meeting IDC's criteria.
