Just before the year ends, we are happy to share that we have inaugurated our new office space in Ahmedabad.
Last week, our team came together for a three-day meeting that concluded with the inauguration of this new space, a milestone that reflects not just growth in infrastructure, but growth in shared purpose.
The meeting began with a session on disability etiquette, anchored by Shrutilata Singh (Senior specialist- Network Support) and Sampada Shevde (Director – Education and Research), grounding us in the practices and sensitivities that must guide our work. This was followed by updates from each vertical and collective brainstorming on key issues emerging from the field.
We then had a session by Akhil Paul (Chief Mentor) on SII’s rights-based approach to work, followed by communication guidelines led by Sherine Stanly (Consultant - Communications) and Oshin dhawan (Assistant Manager – Communication) . The meeting continued with discussions on our global strategy and partnership approach led by Uttam Kumar (Chief Executive Officer) and Biju Mathew (Chief Operating Officer), before concluding with the inauguration of our new office.
These three days were not only about what teams are doing, but about how we can do better, how we show up as sense people, how we communicate responsibly, and how we strengthen our work together.
There is one goal that binds us all: reaching the last person with deafblindness who is in need of our services.
As we step into the new year, this new space and these shared reflections will continue to guide our work forward.
