AY 2024–25 saw significantly greater participation in the APAV case study course. Confirmation was received for approximately 10,000 students enrolled for the course across participating institutes.
In addition to the credit course, the IITB-UMA team offered internships to selected students under the APAV programme. Students worked on a particular topic — typically linked with the development sector or a real-life scenario — for at least one month and produced a detailed report.
These internships gave students an immersive, extended field experience that goes beyond what the semester-long course can offer — building deeper skills in documentation, stakeholder engagement, and field-based problem solving.
