IMI New Delhi Launches New Sustainability and Social Impact Program
Introduction
The International Management Institute (IMI) New Delhi has launched a new Sustainability And Social Impact (SSI) Program. The SSI programme engages students in three core areas: primary education, rural development, and empowerment of disadvantaged communities, according to the official statement released by the institute.
Under the SSI Program, students will get the opportunity to work with children belonging to disadvantaged backgrounds and contribute to a change in society. The official press release states that the initiative will help develop leadership qualities in the students and will shape future leaders with a strong sense of responsibility and commitment to sustainability. IIM Delhi has partnered with various institutions, NGOs and primary schools under the Municipal Corporation of Delhi. These partnerships will give children practical experience and social awareness regarding significant issues.
“SSI broadens the curriculum to instil values, encouraging students to engage meaningfully with social and economic challenges”, said Sonu Goyal, Dean of Academics.
Himadri Das, director general of IMI New Delhi, said, "The SSI program is a natural extension of IMI’s mission to nurture leaders who are not only skilled in business but also committed to creating positive societal change. By involving students in direct engagement with communities, we’re helping them become proactive agents of change”.
