A walk with nature

Thoughtful initiative

Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS), Bengaluru, in association with City-based NGO ‘Saahas’, organised a flagship event called ‘Walk-a-Thon’ for creating awareness about waste management.

The walk was held in Lalbagh and was organised by ‘Udyam’, the social responsibility cell of NMIMS, in association with ‘Rang’, the cultural committee.

The day started with a corporate event in the institute wherein guest speakers and participants from the NGO came forward and shared their experiences.

‘Saahas’ gave a presentation about zero waste that was followed by ‘Walkathon Symposium’, an interactive session that involved corporates and students.

This was followed a street play titled ‘Dekh Bhai Dekh’, that revolved around waste segregation and the different ways to reduce it. Post this, a three-km-long walk was organised in the garden with the students and representatives of NGOs.
