The International Hindi Association (Antarrashtriya Hindi Samiti) is all set to launch “Jagriti,” a virtual series of webinars to persuade new writers to develop a new platform of literary work in Hindi.
Prof. Kunwar Chandra Prakash Singh founded Antarrashtriya Hindia Samiti on October 18, 1980, to promote and propagate Hindi around the globe. The US-based IRS approved 501-c3 non-profit organization has been actively pursuing its mission for the past 41 years around the world through its multiple chapters in the U.S. and other countries, said a press release from Tarun N. Surti, an Indian American who recently joined the IHA board of trustees.
IHA has also been taking up a multi-prong approach to accomplish its mission, including the publication of a quarterly magazine named “Vishwaa,” annual mega kavi-sammelans, and the teaching of Hindi.
The first step of Jagriti will be to explore, understand, and learn from the centuries-old history of the Hindi language and its potential socio-economic impact in the modern world, added the release.
The series of free, virtual monthly webinars will involve discussions led by invited acclaimed Hindi scholars worldwide, including university professors, linguists, writers, and other stakeholders such as publishers.
The first webinars will be broadcast live on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/ihaamerica: on February 5, 2022, at 9:30 p.m. India Standard Time. For further information email: jagriti@hindi.org
