Solar energy offers a sustainable pathway to address climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions\, promoting cleaner development and creating healthier living environments. As a renewable and abundant resource\, it supports energy security and a greener future. However\, the growth of solar energy must be guided by ecological responsibility\, with attention to challenges such as land degradation\, impacts on biodiversity and bird populations and sustainable waste management.

SUMMARY:5th Yuva Sustainability Conference | Yuva Sustainability Internship Programme
DESCRIPTION:Organised by Yuva for Sustainability with Lok Samvad Sansthan as the implementation partner\nA Sustainability Karma Initiative\n  \nInternational Youth Day 2026: Mainstreaming Sustainability In Education Ecosystem\nOrganised on the occasion of International Youth Day 2026\, Mainstreaming Sustainability In Education Ecosystem is an invitation-only leadership dialogue that will bring together a distinguished group of vice-chancellors\, principals\, industry leaders\, sustainability and CSR heads\, UN representatives\, civil society organisations\, policymakers and youth sustainability leaders. \nAligned with the International Youth Day 2026 theme\, Different Contexts\, Common Aspirations\, the dialogue recognises that while educational institutions operate in diverse social\, economic and regional contexts\, they share a common responsibility to prepare young people to lead sustainable\, resilient\, and inclusive societies. As nations seek to accelerate progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)\, education has emerged as one of the most powerful enablers of climate resilience\, responsible citizenship\, innovation and equitable development. \nIndia’s National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 provides a strong foundation for multidisciplinary\, experiential and competency-based learning that equips learners to address complex societal and environmental challenges. At the same time\, the evolving NAAC quality framework increasingly recognises environmental stewardship\, community engagement\, institutional values and societal contribution as indicators of educational excellence.\nInternationally\, leading higher education assessment frameworks similarly evaluate institutions on their sustainability performance\, societal impact and contribution to the SDGs\, making sustainability central to institutional relevance\, global competitiveness and future readiness. \nThe rapidly evolving sustainability landscape also presents an unprecedented opportunity to strengthen collaboration between academia\, industry\, government\, civil society and international organisations. By embedding sustainability across curricula\, research\, campus operations and community engagement and by integrating climate literacy\, green skills\, digital innovation and social entrepreneurship into the learning ecosystem\, educational institutions can nurture future-ready leaders capable of addressing shared global challenges through locally relevant solutions. Such an approach not only enhances youth employability but also empowers young people to become innovators\, changemakers and active contributors to sustainable development. \nReflecting the spirit of global solidarity\, shared challenges and youth innovation\, the conference will facilitate a high-level exchange of ideas on mainstreaming sustainability across India’s education ecosystem through curriculum transformation\, value-added courses\, experiential learning\, student leadership\, interdisciplinary research\, industry engagement and cross-sector partnerships. It will provide a platform for institutions to learn from diverse experiences\, identify scalable practices and strengthen collective efforts to build resilient\, inclusive and future-ready education systems. \nThe dialogue aims to develop practical institutional pathways for integrating sustainability into higher education while fostering long-term collaboration among educational institutions\, industry\, government\, development partners and civil society. By advancing knowledge exchange\, innovation and collective action\, the conference seeks to contribute to a shared vision of empowering young people with the knowledge\, values\, skills and opportunities needed to build a more sustainable\, equitable and resilient future. \n Register here for the conference \n  \nYuva for Sustainability: Previous Speakers \n\nNobel Laureate Kailash Satyarthi\nDr Anil Prakash Joshi\, Padma Bhushan Awardee\, and Founder\, HESCO\nRajendra Singh\, Magsaysay Awardee\, and Founder\, Tarun Bharat Sangh\nAnshu Gupta\, Magsaysay Awardee\, Founder\, Goonj\nSwami Prem Parivartan (Peepal Baba)\, Founder\, Give Me Trees Trust\nErik Solheim\, Global Ambassador\, Global Solar Council\nProf Govind Singh\, Media Advisor to Uttarakhnad Chief Minister\nDr Raj Nehru\, OSD to Haryana Chief Minister\nProf K G Suresh\, Director\, India Habitat Centre\nDr Swati Mujumdar\, Pro-Chancellor and In-Charge VC\, Symbiosis Skills and Professional University\nDr N C Wadhwa\, IAS (Retd)\, Director General\, Manav Rachna Educational Institutions (MREI)\nProf Nupur Prakash\, VC\, The NorthCap University\, Gurugram\nProf Avinash Singh\, Former Pro-VC\, University of Technology and Management\, and DG & PVC of Manglayatan University\nProf Sanjeev Bhanawat\, Former Head\, Centre for Mass Communication\, University of Rajasthan\nProf Bijayalaxmi Nanda\, Principal\, Miranda House\, University of Delhi\nProf Harpreet Kaur\, Principal\, Mata Sundri College for Women\, University of Delhi\nProf Seema Agrawal\, Principal\, Kanoria PG Mahila Mahavidyalaya\, University of Rajasthan\nProf Rihan Khan Suri\, Director\, Centre for Innovation and Entrepreneurship\, Jamia Millia Islamia\nRichard Rekhy\, Vice Chairman\, Grant Thornton Bharat\nAngelo George\, CEO\, Bisleri International\nPratyush Thakur\, India Country Head\, Blueleaf Energy\nRaj Bhatia\, CMD\, Bony Polymers\nPrashant Singh\, Co-Founder & CEO\, Blue Planet Environmental Solutions\nAbhishek Agashe\, Co-Founder & CEO\, Elima\nSanthosh Jayaram\, Former Global Head of Sustainability\, HCLTech\nK Ganesh\, Director\, Sustainability & Corporate Affairs\, Bisleri International\nNeeru Dhawan\, Head of Global Communication\, UFlex\nSandeep Chandna\, Chief Sustainability Officer\, Tech Mahindra\n\n  \nContact us at info@yuvaforsustainability.com \nRegister here for the conference
