London university collaborates on social projects in India

The University of the Arts London today announced a collaboration between the UK and Indian students on a project aimed at finding creative solutions to social problems in Mumbai.
After running successful workshops in London and New York in the past, UAL's Modual: Mumbai project next month plans to deliver a collaborative digital leadership experience to an Indian audience.
"At UAL, we believe creativity is borderless. We are really excited to be enabling this unprecedented partnership between London and Mumbai's emerging creative talent, which will generate profound cultural and technical exchange while simultaneously creating new possibilities for positive social impact," said Fred Deakin, UAL's Professor of Digital Arts and leader of the project.

Modual is a collaborative workshop exploring creativity, positive change and innovation as part of which 10 students from London will fly out to work for two weeks with 20 Indian students to develop a range of innovative social enterprise projects focusing on creative solutions for local issues.
It will be held at the British Council in Mumbai, which is also providing partnership alongside some local social enterprises like UnLtd India.
Modual: Mumbai, which will run between September 4-15, will include the students pitching their final workable projects to an audience of industry leaders and investors to turn into a business model.
