Abstract: This article explores how young elite urban professionals and fresh graduates in Mumbai and Delhi are fostering diverse aspirations of service, entrepreneurship and charting new professional mobilities through volunteering opportunities at a well-known corporate-supported non-governmental organisation (NGO), the Teach for India (TFI) program. Mostly with commerce, engineering, and management educational backgrounds, the TFI intervention operates as a nodal site for these elite youth to not just serve underprivileged children through 'acts of compassion' but also channel their experiences to understand the education system and reinvigorate it through corporate management values of enterprise and performance. Through examining the trajectories of these individuals, I foreground the nascent terrain of technocratic expertise being shaped through an interlinked collective of corporate NGOs that have become prominent in advising the Delhi state government to improve public education through discourses of enterprise and performance. Speaker: Vidya Subramanian is an Associate Professor at the Jindal School Of Government and Public Policy. She is a sociologist who works on entrepreneurship, education, and governance. Her recent research work examines the trajectories of young elite professionals as they shift from conventional pathways into the development sector.
