  • Bwf Site Visit Report 2018
    BWF SITE VISIT REPORT 2018 By: Anup Som I have been involved with Asha Silicon Valley since 2004 and known about BeT (Basera-e-Tabassum) as one of its projects for several years. Ten years later, I got to learn more about Borderless World Foundation and Mr. Adhik Kadam, it’s founder-director, when he visited the San Francisco Bay area. In May 2018, I found myself wrapping up a big project in New Delhi and thought it would be a wonderful opportunity to spend a few days in Jammu and Kashmir, visit the 5 BWF homes and meet the resident girls and caretakers. Over 6 days, I visited each of the homes in Jammu, Kupwara, Beerwah and Anantnag once. The Srinagar home was our hub in Kashmir so there was back and forth several times. This was a refreshing, humbling, inspiring trip. I witnessed indescribable beauty in landscapes and people, contrasted with harsh conditions and extreme situations. Kashmir is an ancient land of saintly people. It's also in transition. While I anticipated palpable undercurrents of militancy, I didn't notice any. Perhaps it was the company I mingled with - underprivileged and hopeful young souls sheltered by a unique, caring organization. There's a lot more to Kashmir and Kashmiris than meets the eye or grabs our attention. While it may have safely issues at times, I did see tourists from distant parts of India. I do heartily recommend visiting Kashmir. Your senses and soul will appreciate it. Below is a chronological sequence. I’ve tried to keep the notes somewhat raw.

  • Visit Report Long Version
    Amol Antony Jose 3 September 2014 Report of Visit to Borderless World Foundation homes Context I spent in total close to two weeks across the homes. I went their with an open mind, to agree and to disagree and wasn't sure how my travels would turn out prior to making the trip. In the end, I had a great time. To give bit of a context to the report, Jammu and Kashmir is one of the most under developed states in the country. Most of the state makes do with non- existent roads. In one of the districts, where a BWF home sits, they don't have proper electricity or even health centres/clinics/any kind of medical facilities within the range of many kilometres. To make things a bit more interesting conflict and militancy have made things a lot more difficult for kids who are most affected. Basic things that a kid needs are difficult to be catered for. Shelter, Food, Clothes, School. Most kids have been directly affected by the conflict. A parent killed by a militant or in conflict. Most kids are from areas where militancy has been rife. I travelled with the mother of the kids, she was kind enough to take me from Anantnag to Kupwara, from one of the homes to the other. After her husband died she couldn't afford to keep her children at home, even if the school fees and mid day meals were taken care of. The harsh weather conditions combined with bad infrastructure makes it extremely difficult to do things that we all take for granted.

  • Basera-E– Tabassum Bi-Annual Report “To Call Woman the Weaker Sex Is a Libel; It Is Man's Injustice to Woman
    Basera-e– Tabassum Bi-annual Report “To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man's injustice to woman. If by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman less brute than man. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior. Has she not greater intuition, is she not more self-sacrificing, has she not greater powers of endurance, has she not greater courage? Without her, man could not be. If nonviolence is the law of our being, the future is with woman. Who can make a more effective appeal to the heart than woman?" …………………………. Mahatma Gandhi The ultimate goal of empowerment of women is the welfare of all through cooperation and trusteeship in the economic sphere, equal participation in the political sphere, and mutual aid in the social sphere without regard to caste, or class or gender. Thus, empowerment of village women must grow from the bottom upwards. Borderless World Foundation A women had special capacities for sacrifice and for leadership in peace building. The world had been too long dominated by "masculine" aggressive qualities and that it was time that the "feminine" qualities came to the fore. "Nonviolence is woman's inborn virtue. For ages together man has been trained in violence. To become nonviolent they will have to generate womanly qualities in them. Women are ac- customed to making sacrifices for the family; they will now have to learn to make an offering for the country. I am inviting all women... to get enlisted in my nonviolent army." ……………………………………………………...……………..Mahatma Gandhi The role of women in the political, economic and social emancipation of the country was of overriding importance.
