Introductory session conducted for PGP04 students

This is the time to pass on the learnings and responsibilities to the successors. An introductory session was successfully conducted on 24 October 2013. It is really exciting to see the zeal and passion of the active PGP04 students actively participating in the session. Many students have come forward to extend their hand to support and be a part of the SDP cell.
With multiple number of projects lined up for the next 1 year, the students have actively shown their interest on particular projects.
The session started with the participants sharing their own experiences of working with NGOs or other social work. Their experiences were diversified in terms of areas which included Healthcare, Education, Environment and Social Entrepreneurship. Following it a brief introduction of the SDP cell and the social issues that the cell takes into account to fight against were discussed.
The team has discussed on the different categories of the model which the cell ventured into. Finding that the new team has already well experienced working with different NGOs, the students are given freedom to take their own decisions individually which they feel would help the cell to attain its vision.
The team has discussed on the 4 different projects which are to be initiated to the earliest which majorly can be listed as:

Ø  Blood Campaign on behalf of HDFC Bank

The HDFC bank Rohtak as a part of their CSR activities is interested to conduct a blood campaign in the month of December. They have approached the SDP team to avail the support of the IIM Rohtak and its students as the volunteers of the event.

Ø  Team up with GreenPeace India for future events

Greenpeace India has been working on various issues related to the environment since 2001. Our work in India is focused on four broad campaigns namely, stop climate change, sustainable agriculture, preserving the oceans and preventing another nuclear catastrophe. It has approached to team up with the SDP team to work and coordinate for further events that will be conducted.
