About the Organisation
Eight Goals One Foundation (8one) was co-founded by Ramit Singh Chimni and Varun Achreja to support the eight goals that our foundation has identified as crucial in our mission for humanity.
These goals include – Well-being, Gender Equality, Peace, Environment, Hygiene, Nutrition, Education and Employment. 8one aims to affect pragmatic and sustainable progress across these goals with a focus on social development over other interpretations of the term ‘development’.
Through our projects and initiatives, 8one collaborate with government entities such as the Government of India’s Ministries of Commerce and Industry, and Law and Justice, along with international and domestic organisations, such as UNESCO, CII, NAWF, amongst others. 8one also regularly interact with experts including, Rosalia Arteaga (former President of the Republic of Ecuador), Violeta Bulc (Former Deputy Prime Minister of Slovenia), and Eric Falt (Regional Director, UNESCO New Delhi Cluster Office), amongst many others.

Details about the Event
WHAT
The F.A.I.R. Project, an initiative of Eight Goals One Foundation (8one), is organising an online experiential program for individuals between 18 to 27 years of age, supported by the UNESCO New Delhi Cluster Office.
F.A.I.R. is a methodology of introspection which is driven by active dialogue and analysis to inculcate a mindset that focuses on what is right for all and not what benefits a few.
F.A.I.R. is a continuing conversation beyond the formal program, embarking on a mission for holistic and inclusive betterment of humanity.
WHY
8one believe that decisions based on collective values are possible, despite the contemporary doctrine and evidences of individualistic interests winning over the common good.
The F.A.I.R. Project wants to equip you with the thought process that helps you develop real-time solutions to propagate our 8 goals, which complement the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and mobilise change irrespective of which political, commercial, social or personal situation you may find yourself in.
