International Entrepreneurship & Literature Festival 2024

International Entrepreneurship & Literature Festival is happening in Canada’s most vibrant and multicultural city Toronto. A two-day celebration of arts, entrepreneurship, and literature showcasing innovative ideas of emerging talent through themed activities. The festival is your opportunity to hear from world-class speakers, enjoy evening socials, build influence, promote products, and connect with your community.

Health and Wellness for All

Is our capstone initiative to support mental wellbeing of the South Asian Community. Through this initiative we tend to provide a support group for individuals struggling to cope up with mental illness. As well as we engage in research to identify the factors such as domestic violence, impact of bullying, unemployment and homelessness contributing to mental illness issues in the South Asian community, we offer cultural-based mental health programs, meditation and wellness workshops by trained professionals.

Preserving South Asian Heritage

North Americans of South Asian heritage reflect the cultural diversity of South Asia. The languages and dialects of the region, as well as the religious diversity, which includes Hinduism, Sikhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Jainism, are all now part of the North American identity. NAASAA takes pride in promoting programs and activities to honor the rich history and culture of South Asia. Every year we celebrate the South Asian Heritage Month from July 18th to August 17th to mark the existence and legacy of individuals with origins in the South Asian countries of Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, and the Maldives. This month can play an essential role in the validation and experience of the South Asian Diaspora living in North America and preserve the rich history and voices of millions worldwide.

Reach People Teach People

This initiative aims to provide people living in South Asian countries with static and dynamic educational opportunities spanning the seven fundamental human rights, including water, food, clothing, housing, health, internet, and education. Using the approach teach it, live it, support it, coach it, we tend to provide people with personal access to knowledge and experience to enable them to meet their own needs.
