During SAMANVAY 2007, the annual cultural festival of DoMS, IIT Madras, a one-off Outbound Training event was conducted for the first time.
What began as a single, experimental initiative soon revealed its profound impact. It inspired the creation of a student-driven team, weekend programs, and eventually, a transformative movement that has touched thousands of students across years.
This book is the story of that journey—its beginnings, evolution, challenges, milestones, and the people who believed in its purpose.
It is a reflection on values that endure: experiential learning, teamwork, leadership, empathy, and the courage to step beyond comfort.
It is a tribute to the students and scholars community that made it possible.
