The Gandhi Development Trust (GDT) was established on the 19th August 2002 with the aim of promoting Gandhian values in order to build a spirit of reconciliation and to create a culture of peace and non-violence locally and internationally. In keeping with these objectives GDT organises a number of events during each year.
GDT is a "not for profit registered organization."
We invite you to browse through this site to learn about our past and current programmes, activities and a wealth of information we have compiled over the years.
Gandhi: True Education What is the meaning of education? It simply means a knowledge of letter. It is merely an instrument, and an instrument may be well used or abused.Therefore, whether you take elementary education or higher education, it is not required for the main thing. It does not make men of us. It doe not enable us to do our duty.In its place it can be of use and it has its place when we have brought our senses under subjection and out our ethics on a firm foundation.Our ancient school system is enough. Character building has the first place in it and that is primary education. A building erected on that foundation will last.
