Kanavu, which means “dreams,” is a school with an alternative education system developed for the indigenous children of Wyanad, Kerala. It was created as a way to fight against the discrimination that the indigenous children often face within the mainstream schooling system. This photo was taken on a night that our group visited the school, while the children sang some of their traditional folk songs.
