Collaborating with NGOs to Tackle SDG
Centurion University has forged a meaningful partnership with the Bapuji Rural Enlightenment and Developmental Society (BREDS), an esteemed non-governmental organization passionately dedicated to actualizing the Gandhian dream of “Gram Swaraj” by establishing a network of self-reliant villages. In this collaborative initiative, the University actively involves its Agricultural Engineering students, who work alongside BREDS to engage with local village communities. Their mission is to impart knowledge and promote the adoption of the latest and most effective farming practices, thereby contributing significantly to the fulfillment of various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a particular focus on SDGs 2 (Zero Hunger), 4 (Quality Education), 13 (Climate Action), and 17 (Partnerships for the Goals). This partnership reflects our commitment to sustainable rural development and the empowerment of local communities while preparing our students to be agents of positive change.
