A virtual symposium was organized under the banner of Round Square by the Doon School on the theme ‘SUSTAINABILITY’.
5 students of the Seth Anandram Jaipuria School, Vedanta Bagla, Anirudh Saraf, Arav Gupta, Sarthak Srivastav and Raafey Qureshi participated in this event. This conference brought together around 100 students.
The students were divided into groups for discussions in Barraza sessions, on various questions pertaining to Climate Change, Global Warming, Mental Health. They also discussed about the impact of New Virtual Mode of Education on children during the Pandemic. The discussions were very interactive and intriguing. The ice breaking sessions were followed by discussions on Climate Change and how the Pandemic has changed lives 360° in every sphere. The discussion on how we could reduce the greenhouse gases was enriching.
Learning outcomes:
