The Himalayan College of Nursing, Swami Rama Himalayan University, observed World Environment Day on 5th June with a vibrant poster and slogan presentation aimed at promoting environmental protection. The event was designed to sensitize B.Sc. Nursing students to the growing need for environmental preservation and to encourage active participation in environmental advocacy through creative expression.
Guided by the global call for sustainable practices, the event saw enthusiastic participation from students who conveyed their concern for nature through powerful visuals and impactful messages. A total of 16 posters and slogans were presented, each reflecting a unique perspective on ecological balance, conservation, and sustainable living. The activity served not only as a platform for awareness but also as a means to channel students’ artistic and literary skills towards a meaningful cause.
Coordinated by Ms. Preeti Prabha, Assistant Professor and Chairperson of the Literary Committee, under the guidance of Dr. Sanchita Pugazhendi, Principal, the event created an environment of engagement and awareness within the academic space. The posters were displayed prominently, drawing attention to key environmental issues such as pollution, deforestation, climate change, and the importance of biodiversity.
The outcome of the event was significant in fostering a sense of environmental responsibility among the participants. Students demonstrated a clear understanding of the critical state of our environment and responded with creativity, thoughtfulness, and conviction. The activity not only helped instill environmental values but also aligned the institution’s efforts with the broader mission of World Environment Day—to encourage global awareness and action to protect our planet.
Such initiatives continue to empower future healthcare professionals to become environmentally conscious citizens and advocates for a healthier, more sustainable world.
