UWC DIALOGUES
The United With Congress (UWC) platform is an assemblage of like-minded people interested in bringing about a positive change in society by supporting political ideologies that focus on nation-building, secularism, unity, equality, and liberty.
We regularly host UWC Dialogues sessions in which experts from diverse fields – both political and apolitical – will help you understand the sociopolitical changes India is undergoing, and the consequent effects on our economy, our progress and well-being.
UWC Dialogues also offers Upskill sessions – periodic opportunities to acquire and enhance the skills that we believe are crucial to understand, respond and engage with a planet in which the rate of change is accelerating.
