Bringing the front porch back | Karishma Mehta | TEDxYouth@DAIS

Humans
of Bombay as a concept is inspired from Humans of New York, but overtime has grown
to be an entirely different project. It started off with delivering stories that made people
feel connected, but it is now looking to become a platform where people can actually
make a change. Soon enough Humans of Bombay will be the medium that supports the
'Humans' in need, thanks to the large heart the city has shown to have. Karishma’s talk
will include the 'Front Porch' as discussed earlier along with the NGO aspect to HOB and
the need to stand to make a difference in a stranger's life.

For the first 16 years of her life she lived in Bombay and studied at Bombay Scottish
School. She finished her high school education from The International School Bangalore
and went on to complete a double major in Business and Economics from the University
of Nottingham. Apart from conducting affirmation and positive thinking classes under the name of Knoq (primarily for women) Karishma started Humans of Bombay as a way to make people feel more connected to a city that is known to not stop for anyone.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
