MRCPS Verticals

PEHEL PROJECT: Nurturing the Community with Heartfelt Initiatives

The Manav Rachna Centre for Peace and Sustainability (MRCPS) has embarked on a transformative journey, spanning eight months and touching the lives of countless individuals within the community. This remarkable endeavor is known as the “Pehel Project,” and it has been made possible through the tireless efforts of 200 dedicated volunteers. These selfless individuals have come together to extend a heartwarming gesture of goodwill to the community, offering their time, expertise, and unwavering support, all entirely free of charge.

Empowering the Next Generation: KUCH KEHNA HAI

One of the pivotal initiatives within the Pehel Project is “Kuch Kehna Hai.” This initiative targets the education and protection of school-going children, specifically those between the ages of 4 to 9 years. MRCPS volunteers have taken a proactive role in visiting various schools, where they conduct informative sessions on a topic of paramount importance – “good touch” and “bad touch.” By imparting knowledge and awareness in an age-appropriate and sensitive manner, these dedicated volunteers are not only educating young minds but also ensuring their safety and well-being. The “Kuch Kehna Hai” initiative is an exemplar of how education and compassion can come together to create a safer and more enlightened society.

Sustainability in Style: SECOND STITCH towards Sustainable Fashion

In an era of fast fashion and environmental concerns, MRCPS is leading the charge with the “SECOND STITCH” initiative. This creative endeavor is not only a call to action but a call to creativity and sustainability. It encourages individuals to transform their old denim garments into reusable items right in the comfort of their homes. By instilling the idea of repurposing and recycling, MRCPS aims to reduce textile waste and minimize the environmental footprint associated with the fashion industry.

“SECOND STITCH” is more than just a crafting project; it’s a movement towards conscious consumption. It inspires individuals to think twice before discarding their old jeans, inviting them to see the potential in what’s considered old or worn out. By providing DIY guides and hosting workshops, MRCPS is equipping individuals with the tools and knowledge to make eco-conscious choices when it comes to fashion.

Reviving the papers

In a proactive stride toward cultivating a sustainable campus and nurturing an eco-conscious ethos among students, a pioneering student-led initiative was established by MANAV RACHNA CENTRE FOR PEACE AND SUSTAINABILITY. This visionary project ingeniously repurposed discarded paper, breathing new life into it by crafting exquisite handmade sheets adorned with a vibrant palette of colors. This creative endeavor not only championed the cause of sustainability but also empowered young minds to become stewards of the environment, embodying the essence of true sustainability champions.

PRAKARSH

SDG-4 aims to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all. It supports the reduction of disparities and inequities in education, both in terms of access and quality. It recognizes the need to provide quality education for all, and most especially vulnerable populations, including children belonging to the weaker sections of the society, children with special needs, and children belonging to indigenous and refugee clans. Being an SGD of critical importance due to its transformative effects on the other SDGs, sustainable development pivots on every child receiving a quality education. With a robust support mechanism, the children are offered the tools to develop to their full potential. Thus, they become prolific individuals prepared to give back to their communities and break the cycle of poverty. Education enables upward socioeconomic mobility. The vertical ‘Prakarsh’, has been envisaged on the lines of the fourth Sustainable Development Goal (SDG- 4) on Quality Education.
