AVAHAN

AVAHAN is an audiovisual wing of IPH, which started in 2008. The word AVAHAN means to beckon. We wish to beckon people to come forward to carry the task of this mental health message further. Hence, we started documenting our work in the form of CD/DVDs.This medium was also vital to reach out to more & more people who could not personally attend our programs. Power of this medium is that one can carry DVDs in interiors & spread the message. The language of images reaches better & faster than only lectures. We started documenting our in-house activities and started developing our own range of ‘software’ through different IPH programs & also creating on our own. Manatarang is the first ever film festival in the country being regularly conducted on the theme of Mental Health.
