SARA is an Ambedkarite community space. All participants are expected to uphold the values of equality, dignity, and respect throughout the summer school.
Be Respectful & Kind Treat every participant, speaker, and staff member with dignity. Discrimination or disrespectful behaviour of any kind will not be tolerated.
Be on Time Attend all sessions and meals punctually. If unavoidable, inform the coordinator in advance.
Attend All Sessions Full participation is expected. Unexplained absences may result in certificate being withheld.
Closing at 10:00 PM All participants must be back in Dr. Ambedkar Bhawan by 10:00 PM every night, no exceptions.
Strictly Prohibited Smoking, alcohol, and non-vegetarian food are not allowed inside Dr. Ambedkar Bhawan.
Keep Spaces Clean Keep your room and all shared spaces clean and tidy. Damage to property is the individual’s responsibility.
Responsible Device Use Use devices for learning during sessions. Do not record lectures or participants without permission.
Report Concerns Feel unsafe or witness misconduct? Report it confidentially to the organiser immediately.
Meals Are at Fixed Times Be on time for meals to avoid waste and inconvenience to the kitchen staff.
There are no silly questions. If you are confused, at least five others in the room are too. Your question helps everyone.
Raise your hand anytime during the session. We would rather pause and explain than have you left behind.
If you miss a step, say so immediately. It is easier to fix in the moment than to carry confusion forward.
You do not need to understand everything at once. R takes time. Confusion is not failure - it is the beginning of learning.
Help your neighbour, but do not fall behind yourself. If the person next to you is struggling, a quiet word helps - but flag to the instructor too.
After the session, ask freely. Approach the instructor or volunteer during breaks, meals, or free time. We are here for you beyond the classroom too.
On the WhatsApp group, no question is too basic. Post your error, your screenshot, your confusion - someone will respond.
If something feels uncomfortable in the classroom, tell us. We want this to be a safe learning space. Your feedback makes us better.
