About Us

This is what Nanma spoke about

You wanted theory? Here it is.

Nanma is an amazing combination of Mahatma Gandhi’s doctrine of ‘Trusteeship’ coupled with Karl Marx’s ‘historical materialism’ and Nobel laureate Amartya Sen’s ‘Capability Approach’. To put it in layman’s tongue, Nanma works on the belief that one’s agency is not a personal asset but a creation of the physical realities, and can be defined by one’s own will to translate it into action.

Nanma is about discovering yourself

“It is not a disgrace to not reach the stars, but it is a disgrace to have no stars to reach for.”

- Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam

Our Mission

The mission of NANMA is to inspire, stimulate and facilitate youth to first explore and then transcend the physical, intellectual and spiritual boundaries of their inner potential, producing individuals with highly ignited minds who are capable of driving an all-round national renaissance.Nanma Foundation wants those associated with it to explore their own potential to make a mark in this world. Every one of them. For Nanma Foundation, every life is unique, And special.The difference between an extraordinary life lived and a common life is in the way it is lived. That’s why Nanma Foundation keep returning to the basics. At that point one start seeing the stars they really need to reach out to.

Our Vision

Within every person exists a talent! However, no one realizes the full potential of their own talents. When people fail to make use of their talents properly, they slowly degenerate. Along with this, the essential element of "Nanma" is also lost. "Nanma" is a gift bestowed on mankind at birth itself. However, over time, due to ignorance or neglect, this element deteriorates and then disappears. This must not be allowed to happen. "Nanma" is a critical component of our human-ness, which needs to be protected, cherished and enabled to come to fruition. In turn, "Nanma" will ensure the universal blossoming of the inherent capabilities within man.
