Character Teaching in India In February, 2007, Lee Havis held a series of meetings in Mumbai and Bangalore, India to discuss the Character Teaching (CT) project in that country. In Bangalore, he met with K.R. Dharmadhikary (Lok Sevak Sangh, New Delhi) and Indrani Roy and Smita Kalappa of Smile Foundation. In Mumbai, Lee met with Ganesh Sharma and other members of the board of

In 2008, Dr. Meera Singh (New Delhi) joined the CT consultation board, promising to contact government officials and local NGO’s to gain their interest and participation. Lee says that New Delhi would be ideal for the initial consultation visit, since it is the country’s center of national government, and near to neighboring Pakistan where other CT board members are actively working for the project in that country.
