Undergraduate students in India, the UK and United States will form the core of ASAP\’s Global Student Advisory Board. The board is designed as a means of helping students share their insights and energies alongside their ASAP-member instructors, especially in helping ASAP achieve its impact aims for addressing severe poverty.

Inaugural members are Kuldeep Thakre of Shri Ram College of Commerce, University of Delhi; Zachary Foreman of Yale University, and Joshua Lindsey-Turner of the University of Birmingham.

Major Student Advisory Board initiatives for 2012 include developing an ongoing ASAP internship program, opening formal ASAP student chapters at several universities, and developing a student-led project in Delhi aimed at helping disadvantaged persons gain better access to their government-sponsored entitlements.
