Purpose

The purpose of “Awaken Asia” by IntegralWorld is deeply rooted in Sri Aurobindo’s vision of a resurgent Asia reclaiming its historical prominence. Historically, Asia thrived as a connected and symbiotic region until colonial onslaughts disrupted its social, cultural, and economic fabric. By fostering collaboration, innovation, and community engagement, “Awaken Asia” seeks to break free from the patterns imposed by colonial powers and ignite a spiritual reawakening across Asia. Through multisector collaboration, inclusive growth, and sustainable practices, this initiative aims to revive Asia’s cultural linkages, empower its communities, and lead the region towards a brighter and more prosperous future. “Awaken Asia” envisions a unified effort to surpass SDG targets, contributing to a world where Asia emerges as a global leader in holistic and inclusive development, free from the shackles of its colonial past.
