Chitrabani

I spent very important years of my training life with Chitrabani. That time, I had joined a local school as teacher, to teach computer graphics to aspirants and students. What I was missing was, some more important education on visual communication, and Chitrabani had given me that opportunity. I had participated, learnt, exercised the way I wanted to do.

Chitrabani is the social communication centre sponsored by the Kolkata Province of the Society of Jesus. The objective of Chitrabani is to spread a mass media culture that helps people to integrate harmoniously the communication media into their cultural lives. Thus, people will benefit from the media while remaining free in front of them, and will eventually become responsible communicators themselves.

Chitrabani produces radio programmes, films, slides, photographs, posters, etc. consonant with the aims mentioned above. The centre conducts research to ensure production of efficient programmes but also to gain a deeper understanding of the action of the media in society.
