LILA Terra-Sutra Campus-Links is our effort to democratically link learning spaces across the world. The Sanctuaries become the organisational centres for the Campus-Links chapters in a locality.
We believe that learning can be effective only if it is realised in a continuous manner. Learning cannot be divided in a tabular organisation, segregating times and spaces; it takes place across time, across spaces, and it is these multi-directions of the act of learning that we must reaffirm. Campuses should offer spaces where learners can come and apply their knowledge in creative and transformative ways. Thus, the learner becomes a change agent by connecting her knowledge with the other thinker-actors and the larger challenges of our society.
What is Campus-Links?
Campus-Links is an attempt to create organic linkages across campuses. We understand campus in a large sense, as an extended site of learning. While it includes the traditional understanding of campus – derived from Latin campare, field– through schools, colleges and universities – it also engages with all the meeting places of learners. Campus-Links will regularly organise intellectual discussions, public interface programmes, as well as nurture the spirit of conservation in campuses. It will create a nation-wide network of learners on their way to being actors and agents. Towards this, we welcome student coordinators to set up Campus-Links chapters in diverse institutions across the country. These chapters will set up campus-based programmes to facilitate intellectual transformation, opportunity building and social responsibility among learners – the three facets of LILA’s Organic Governance Design.
LILA coordinators actively connect LILA with the campuses in the country. They work closely with LILA and are trained to articulate the vision, mission, projects, and overall functioning of the organisation. The coordinators mobilise student volunteers from their campuses for the LILA Terra-Sutra Campus-Links Initiatives. They also advise LILA regarding potential innovative projects to suit the aspirations of each campus. The campus coordinators from across the country work together to actualise the vision and mission of LILA.
