WHAT IS LIFE OF I
LIFE OF I landed in NYC after traveling through Canada, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Syria, and Iraq. We typically focus on bringing LIVE stories which we stumble across as a part and parcel of our daily lives. As humans, we try to make sense of our experiences, claim identities, interact with each other, and participate in cultural conversations through storytelling. These stories encourage us to view each other as compassionate human beings with a relatable story. As the Dalai Lama once said: "Compassion is the radicalism of our time." LIFE OF I is about flirting with the fine line between the comfortable and the uncomfortable through love, compassion and humor. LIFE OF I in NYC is partnering with organizations, projects, and individuals who are working towards addressing the issues around diversity, bias and the 'other'. This is a series of compassionate storytelling evenings that will help create a safe space to bring different diverse narratives together. It will provide an opportunity for the participants to develop storytelling, digital media, narrative development and communications skills.
WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
Life Of I is recruiting unpaid interns to work 5-10 hours per week to assist with marketing, outreach, organizational development, and/or fundraising. The internship starts in March 2018 and is expected to last for six months. Responsibilities will include some or all of the following :
- Outreach to potential partner organizations and storytellers
- Developing newsletter infrastructure and format
- Establishing and help maintain social media presence
- Assisting with live storytelling evening sessions

About Us
The word 'chowk' has been used to denote a multitude of possibilities in the English language.
Oxford dictionary defines 'Chowk' as an open market area in a city at the junction of two roads. The Collins's dictionary expands on the meaning by including a courtyard or a roundabout to the existing meaning.
We at 'Chowk Labs' are proud to be at the intersection of innovation. We love learning about the different Chowks we help create for potential changemakers, and we shall continue to innovate around the meaning of Chowk.
What does 'Chowk' mean to you?
