    Indianomics Showcase: Sightsavers

    At Indianomics, I am continually evolving the content I create and try to promote ideas in a fresh bottle. Bottle jibe is to emphasize that We often forget that world around us have a stimulus, playing its role in silence, while we are aloof of it. Indianomics Showcase brings out people and groups from cold, and showcases them.

    In this video, I am talking about Sight Savers, an NGO that is helping visually impaired people overcome their issues with the sight. Also featured is an introduction video from Sight Savers YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/SightsaversIN) that explains what how these guys are changing lives of millions of Indians!
