Indiaspora, powered by nonprofit 360+, is proud to announce HeritageINDIA 2019. A unique, immersive, fully-funded 3-week program for students of Indian descent to connect with their ancestral homeland, the program is designed for the diaspora to experience India’s rich cultural history.

HeritageINDIA will take place July 21 – August 10 with the exciting theme of India’s Riches: History, Culture, Diversity, & Democracy. Students will visit three areas of India that are geographically and culturally diverse, yet all very much represent India:New Delhi, Gujarat, and Kerala.
