‘More than ever, we need a behavioral change in making inclusive and sustainable change. We have to increase the share of voices in protecting the one Earth.’
Water Conversation
“As per the estimates of NITI Aayog, by 2030, our water demand will be double our water supply. We should reach the youth and other stakeholders, who are the future citizens of the country,” S.K. Sarkar, the distinguished fellow, TERI, said he emphasized the need to take the message of water conservation to all stakeholders.
Collaborations such as the MoU between TERI and Diamond Toons will help in taking the message across, he added.
Verma said the platform of talking comics and its universe of characters would convey the message of conservation and sustainable development to stakeholders in multiple languages.
“The power of storytelling is the only way to make a society inclusive of change,” Verma noted.
