Maybe something like "We would really appreciate IISER helping out with
academic inputs, support for holding teachers' workshops and other forms of
engagement"?

I just felt the first draft sounded a bit vague. What do you think?

Should we write about holding KRT intensive training workshops at COESME,
participation of IISER faculty in the Ashram school engagement (e.g. in
material development, Bhas coming as a representative of IISER instead of
in an individual capacity to the Amravati workshop), and something else
like students' participation?

I am not sure if such a general letter is what is required. Shouldn't
there be some specifics?

Dear all,
Satyajit Rath had suggested :
Secondly, IISER, Pune. I have now talked with Shashi (Shashidhara) as
well as Bhas and Vineeta. Shashi is very enthusiastic about pretty much
all
the tentative plans that Anish had summarised (although how much will
actually happen is somewhat unclear!). However, again, it would be
good to start by having formal letters go to him asking for collaborative
assistance from both you and the government of Maharashtra, and again, I
will be glad to work with you on those drafts. Shashi pointed out (and
Bhas
agreed) that IISER-Pune already has a funded effort going on called COESME
which is very appropriate for this purpose (
http://www.iiserpune.ac.in/outreach/coesm, and of which he is
currently the head. So the letters should go to Shashi as head, COESME, to
begin with. Shashi too suggests that he will invite Eklavya to come down
for a meeting, and we can take it on from there in all these directions.
Could you go through this draft? Tried to keep it non-specific for now
- as the KRTs & youth-workshops and other academic engagement details can
come later (?). Once we make this pucca, we could send it to Bhas, Vineeta
and Satyajit for their suggestions.
