The events took place in Kolar (Karnataka) from 5-8 February, in Chandrapur (Maharashtra) from 18-21 February 2013 and in Purulia (West Bengal) from 26 February - 01 March. Similarly, one following workshop will be organized in Firozabad (Uttar Pradesh) under the framework of the Joint Staff Development Programs (JSDP) Partner Network.

The JSDP consists of NGOs involved in training-oriented developmental activities at the grass root level. Its activities are framed under the overall objective of inclusiveness serving India's national development through the support and training of key representatives among the rural and urban youth and PRI public representatives.

During the last event in Purulia, the students of the Statesman Print Journalism School (SPJS) in Kolkata - a KAS-project in cooperation with the CR Irani Foundation - were invited and wrote an article about the implementation of the Curriculum (see above).
