| Sister Cyril grew up in Ireland and began working in India in the 1950s. Appalled at the poverty outside the private school where she worked, she later implemented changes that made education more accessible to the poor. Here, she speaks with students who are members of the National Cadet Corps, India's version of the ROTC. |
