The document is an invitation to a conversation about the People's Archive of Rural India (PARI) project. PARI is a new not-for-profit initiative launched by journalist P. Sainath that aims to document everyday lives in rural India through a crowdsourced website containing video, photos, audio, and text. PARI hopes to involve public participation by allowing anyone to contribute content as long as it fits the mandate of portraying rural lives. The invitation is for a January 5th event where Sainath will introduce PARI and answer questions about the first of its kind crowdsourced archive project in India.
