how it began
Nearly six years of making room
Ukiyo started in December 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, with four people who believed mental wellbeing deserved more room in everyday life. It has been a webinar series, a campus project and a 15-day program. Now it is a table in a Delhi cafe with a seat saved for you.
2020
Started on 26 December 2020 as Project Ukiyo, a youth-led initiative. In 2021 came Aaina, beginning with webinars led by psychologists from the UK and Australia.
Then
Sessions with colleges, our first fest, and Aaina growing into a 15-day self-reflection program.
Now
Weekend gatherings across Delhi, more than 100 volunteers, and an extended community of over 2,000 people.
