Bunker Roy is a rare man, his quiet sense of humour, keen intelligence and determination have worked miracles. As he says, Barefoot College is “a place of learning and unlearning: where the teacher is the learner and the learner is the teacher.” Please watch this and think on’t! For me, this talk was inspirational.

“Roy’s idea is that India and Africa are full of people with skills, knowledge and resourcefulness who are not recognised as engineers, architects or water experts but who can bring more to communities than governments or big businesses.”
