- About Me:
- Dr. Ash Pachauri, the founder and director of the Centre for Human Progress (CHP) is a behavioural scientist and knowledge mobilisation expert. Dr. Pachauri has contributed extensively to developing knowledge-based mobilisation processes in India to strengthen leadership and empowerment of in- and out-of-school youth and communities at-risk of HIV. A strong advocate for public health and human rights issues, Dr. Pachauri has spearheaded processes to build the first national platform for community-led knowledge sharing in India and is now expanding the platform for mobilisation and empowerment of youth and communities within the Asia and the Pacific region.
With a PhD in decision behaviour and master's degree in international management, Dr. Pachauri worked with McKinsey & Company before pursuing a career in the social development arena. Dr. Pachauri’s experience in the field of public health, including sexual and reproductive health and rights and HIV prevention among youth and at-risk communities emerges from a range of initiatives including those of PATH, UNDP, IPPF, Avahan (the India AIDS initiative of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation) and CDC-funded interventions in the US. Dr. Pachauri has been engaged with research, implementation and capacity building of communities in social mobilisation, knowledge exchange and behaviour change communication. With a passion for internet technologies, Dr. Pachauri also developed the first electronic platform to support programmatic- and community-based knowledge exchange among Avahan-funded projects located in the six HIV high prevalence states of India.
Widely published, winner of the prestigious Overseas Research Scholarship, awarded for advanced studies in the U.K. and recognised for his academic achievements, Dr. Pachauri pursues interests in research and teaching through ongoing collaboration with academic institutions in India and the USA. He currently holds an assistant professorship position at the International Institute of Health Management Research (IIHMR) in New Delhi. He is also on the Board of several organisations, including AIESEC IIT Kharagpur.

We have been working with truck drivers (and allied community members) on HIV and STI risk and vulnerability reduction using a number of dialogue-based methods. These methods employed by and for truck drivers themselves, include interpersonal communication (IPC) and a form of participatory theatre called "Magnet Theatre" (MT). You can read more about this form of theatre here: http://chp.community.officelive.com… Continue
