'Prayaan' defining sustainable future took over as the theme for Foundation Fortnight, WeSchool - Mumbai.
Sustainability in simple terms means ability to maintain or support an activity or process over the long term. Available natural resources are being utilized for supporting human activities at a faster pace than their replenishment; thereby putting a question mark over the sustainability of these activities in the long term. All human interventions need to now be directed towards maintaining the right balance of all natural resources for meeting economic, environmental & social needs for now and the future.
All in all, it was a day when the inspirers - Group Director, Deans and faculty met the aspirers.
