Live Happy NGO has in the past and continues to be in the future as a hub for cultural exchange between the youth of foreign nationals and local students, for a period of One year. The students not only interact with other students from the same age groups but also different individuals that visit the NGO. The students are trained in all programs that run at the NGO within the field of social work and are given responsibilities along with creative independence to integrate their own flair into the workings of the organization.

TWO LIVES is an educational program that promotes intercultural dialogue and a meeting space based on the principle of equal opportunities and inclusion. It is inspired by the theory and practice of integral education advocated by Rabindranath Tagore, arduous champion of the dialogue between cultures and peoples. Tagore strived for a closer relationship between the Western civilizations and India, as he was convinced that East and West could cooperate.

TWe propound that diversity can be a school in itself to educate for a more open and plural society. Through the different activities that are proposed our program wants to be a place of learning, exchange, communication, and encounter with diverse realities. The idea of ​​openness applied to our activities is understood as a positive attitude towards other ideas and cultures, ways of being and acting, in short, as an acceptance of change to promote innovation for peace, creativity and interculturality.

The methodology we use, "learn by living", allows participants to get in touch with the realities of India, facilitating encounters between people, a deeper knowledge of the culture and society of India in diversity, a space for the exploration and practice of such knowledge and values ​​in an environment of respect and freedom. We propose a direct involvement of the participants and we introduce them to everyday life of India, the gastronomy and the various festivals, the different religions, customs, and traditions, etc., discussing interesting facts and any queries that may arise.

The main meaning of all education is the enjoyment of life, the management of the mind and emotions and the cultivation of the body and relationships, the knowledge of our corporality, the advocacy of cooperation, relations and trust in others, and the development of our capabilities. Artistic education such as music, dance, painting, literature, etc., encourages participation, favors free and creative expression and furthers the acquisition of a set of socio-emotional competencies for social harmony. Our educational program is aware of the sociological changes and the need to manage educational and cultural activities with intelligence and creativity to strengthen social cohesion and promote the intercultural development of citizens.

Therefore, LIVE HAPPY proposes the framework for each person to develop their potential and learn to relate, to raise their emotions, to interact with others and with the natural world.
