What is the one thing that defines you? Where do you stop at?

When we walked through the magnificent and picturesque campus of The Doon School in early 2015, the place was buzzing with enthusiasm. Age-old traditions and legacies are protected here along with an energy that is contagious. The boarders are ready to take on the world, and they would stop at nothing.

What do you offer these enthusiastic and adventurous boarders that would blow them away?

Apparently, a challenge none of them have faced ever. Actually, a challenge that no Indian School has ever faced. We ask an often clichéd question. What is the one thing that you haven’t done before? There’s this one response that catches our attention, ‘’ I have traversed 5 continents at age 12, there’s really nothing more left more to see now, is it? ”

As we walk them through the bylanes of where they are going, we couldn’t help but see those ‘Oh wow’ looks on their face. Pitching a tent at -6 degrees Celsius, camping under the Midnight Sun, and with Penguins for companions, there would be hardly any scene that would beat it? Edvour will be going to Antarctica, and in the process the boys will be part of history of educational travel by becoming the First Indian School to reach Antarctica.
As we board the Polar Cruiser there is nervousness in the air. There are 2 days of Drakes Passage ahead of us. Stormy seas and icy conditions make this a test for even the best of all sailors. Antarctica is a place deemed by many to be too inhospitable to live, a place, which has no permanent residents. But just as young learners aboard are starting to get wary, they are hit by the serenity of the crisp Antarctica Air. The Antarctic Coastline is in range, and it is truly majestic. We realise the fact that this is the most sought after place in the world, but it is traversed by only a few.
As penguins squabble and cracks of glaciers make noise, the boarders can’t wait to get on land. The Antarctica Expedition has begun!!!

‪#‎AntarcticawithEdvour‬ ‪#‎DoonatAntarctica‬ ‪#‎PolarExpedition‬‪#‎Livingthedream‬

Antarctica opens up for visitors in the months of October to March. Of the approximately 25,000 travelers who frequent the continent every year, less than 1% of them are Indians.

This post is part of a series titled Taming the Antarctic – a first of its kind expedition to the southernmost continent. Watch this space for more!!!

The Intention http://www.edvour.com/387/ http://www.edvour.com/387/#respond Thu, 26 Feb 2015 07:40:25 +0000 http://methodanimation.in/edvour/?p=387 The Intention

Nothing in the world—indeed nothing even beyond the world—can possibly be conceived which could be called good without qualification except a good will” – Immanuel Kant

Why is Good Will such an important cornerstone for Kant in all his works? The answer is simple; this idea of good will implies two important things for Kant. First, the moral disposition we acquire should be absolute and no desirable object should allow us to forfeit such dispositions.  Second, it is imperative that we nurture these moral convictions and maintain them as all other traits stand in dependence to these. All other desirable traits are worth having on the simple fact that acquiring such desirable does not mean giving up on long standing fundamental beliefs.

Why Is Kant relevant now than ever before?

Modern technologies have totally transformed the way businesses operate in the 21st century. The complex economic interactions has reduced the world into a global village where an Indian company Micromax can edge out a heavyweight like Samsung ; and where a Haldiram can surprise the pundits by clocking more revenue than combined might of McDonalds and Dominos. It is such unpredictability that should force businesses to introspect on how to succeed in this competitive marketplace.
Contrary to capitalistic tendencies which focus on the relentless pursuit of profit, there are other qualifiers in play today which enable businesses stand out from the heap. This is where we should return to Kant. While it is important to address the ‘How’ part of generating profit, the more important question is to address the ‘Why’.  The businesses which have the right intent from the start are almost always on firm footing irrespective of the changing dynamics. The intent is not a mere statement that hangs proudly as the centre piece of the workplace. It is an ideology that resonates through everything the business does.

Core Values

This premise brings to the forefront something that is or should be the heart of our enterprise: their core values. Edvour as a provider of educational exposure programs understand its role in the knowledge economy, where it plays a small but significant part in shaping lives of young learners in their pursuit towards excellence in their fields of choice. Its core values i.e. Integrity, Trust and Respect, Value Creation, Innovation, Customer Delight, and Developing a Learning Paradigm provide the vital foundation in offering quality programs to young learners.
