Conceived in 2005, the Outreach programme at Jamia Millia Islamia works with the double mandate of reaching out to the community both within the university and outside it. Thereby, it organizes programmes and events which try to reach out to the neighbourhood as also to other social and cultural groups in the city.
Its aim has been to make broad-ranging public interaction possible within the university premises through events such as reaching out to the victims of Haiti, or talking of Peace in Palestine, discussing livelihood issues of women and providing them with a platform to showcase their work, organizing workshops for home based workers in Jamia’s neighbourhood, raising scientific temper and gender consciousness through film festivals, organizing plays devoted to contemporary social issues, encouraging the spirit of sharing knowledge by donating books, exposing students to scholarships and awards available to them, among many other activities organized round the year.
