We are excited to launch a series of Yuva Sustainability Webinars under the Voices of Bharat: Yuva for Sustainability initiative.
Topic: Climate Change and Health: Communication Matters
Date: Time: 8th August 2025 | 5 pm – 6.30 pm
While the Special Address will be delivered by Prof. Sudhi Rajiv, Vice Chancellor of Haridev Joshi University of Journalism and Mass Communication Jaipur, the webinar will be chaired by Dr Mohsin Wali, a Padma Shri awardee, and Honorary Physician to three former Presidents of India.
The eminent panel of speakers includes Urvashi Prasad, Former Director, NITI Aayog; Prof Kishore Malviya, TV Anchor & Podcaster; Dr Rajiv Chhibber, VP, Sahajanand Medical Technologies, and Zerin Osho, Director, India Program, Institute for Governance and Sustainable Development. Rajiv Tikoo, Consulting Editor, Sustainability Karma, will be the Moderator.
As climate change increasingly threatens human health—contributing to heat-related illnesses, respiratory problems, and the spread of infectious diseases—experts will emphasise the importance of clear, effective communication.
Exploring the vital intersection of climate change, public health, and media, speakers will share insights and real-world examples to help participants connect global challenges with everyday experiences. This will equip students with the knowledge to create compelling digital content—such as reels, short videos, podcasts, and digital stories—designed to raise awareness, drive behaviour change and inspire climate action.
The creative outputs of the participants will be evaluated by a jury for their impact, with awards presented at the conclusion of the internship.
