One more feather added to our hat yesterday, while we were invited delegates at Mission LiFE event (Lifestyle for Environment) launched by none other than Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in the august presence of the UN Secretary General António Guterres, at the Statue of Unity, Ekta Nagar, Gujarat.
We were amongst 500 delegates invited at the event, that included 116 Indian Heads of Missions abroad, UN Heads of Agencies in India, Union Minister of External Affairs Dr S. Jaishankar, Chief Minister of Gujarat Bhupendra Patel, senior government officials, development partners, and others.
The Prime Minister and UNSG unveiled the LiFE logo and tagline, and released the Mission Document at the event.
Mission LiFE emboldens the spirit of the P3 model, i.e. Pro Planet People. India furthered the vision of LiFE by launching the LiFE Global Movement, inviting academicians, researchers and *start-ups* across the world to think about specific and scientific ways in which the full potential of collective action can be harnessed to address the environment crisis.
Single use plastic was mentioned as a major cause of concern – we are proud of contributing towards Nation’s cause.
