In an impactful move to further education and global connectivity among India’s youth, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has extended an open invitation. The spotlight is on the G-20 University Connect Finale slated for September 26 at the renowned Bharat Mandapam Convention Centre.
An Initiative of Global Learning
Prime Minister Modi, leveraging the professional networking site LinkedIn, shared his endorsement of the G-20 University Connect initiative. “Witnessing India’s ‘Yuva Shakti’ come together through the G-20 University Connect program over the last year has been a testament to its profound impact. This year-long endeavour has delivered exceptional results, driving home the essence of education and unity,” he remarked.
Amplifying Global Awareness and Education
The purpose of the G-20 University Connect program is manifold. Modi emphasized its importance in enlightening the youth on India’s presidency at the G-20 summit, broadening their perspective on global issues, and nurturing a global community spirit. These aspects, he believes, will be pivotal in realizing the vision of a “Viksit Bharat” by the year 2047.
The program’s outreach was widespread. Initially launched for universities, its scope soon expanded to encompass schools and colleges, truly leaving no stone unturned. One notable event was the “Model G20 Meeting.” Here, young minds from 12 countries, encompassing 10 from the G20, brainstormed on “Youth for LiFE (Lifestyle for Environment).”
The Grand Finale: A Global Gathering
“The G-20 University Connect Finale will be held at the prestigious Bharat Mandapam, a venue that recently played host to global leaders for the G-20 Summit,” PM Modi pointed out. He envisions the finale as a learning platform, where insights and experiences from the program’s participants will act as catalysts for inspiration.
Extending his invitation, especially to university students and budding professionals, he expressed, “Your journey with the G-20 University Connect will undoubtedly spark motivation among our nation’s youth. I strongly encourage everyone, especially our dynamic young generation, to be a part of this unparalleled initiative.”
In essence, as the G-20 University Connect draws to its climax, it stands as a beacon of India’s commitment to education, global unity, and a brighter, more informed future. The Grand Finale promises to be an event where young aspirations meet global horizons.
