IEEE DAYS CELEBRATIONS - Plantation Drive
The IEEE SRMCEM Student Branch, in collaboration with various societies and affinity groups, recently organized a remarkable plantation drive in celebration of IEEE Day. This initiative reflected the core values of IEEE, emphasizing sustainability, community welfare, and environmental responsibility. The plantation drive aimed to promote awareness about the importance of trees in combating climate change, improving air quality, and enhancing the overall ecological balance.
A significant highlight of the event was the participation of Er. Sandhya Srivastava, our esteemed Women in Engineering (WIE) advisor. Her presence added immense value to the drive, inspiring students and participants to actively contribute to this noble cause. Er. Srivastava, a strong advocate for women in STEM, shared her insights on the crucial role engineers play in preserving the environment and how small steps like planting trees can create a lasting impact. She emphasized that such events not only contribute to the environment but also instill a sense of social responsibility among students.
The plantation drive saw active involvement from members across IEEE, including the Robotics and Automation Society (RAS), Power and Energy Society (PES), and the affinity group Women in Engineering (WiE). Together, they planted a variety of native saplings around the campus, ensuring that these plants would thrive in the local environment.
Participants were given a brief session on the significance of tree plantation, followed by hands-on experience in planting saplings. It was an engaging and enriching event that fostered collaboration and teamwork. Through such initiatives, the IEEE SRMCEM Student Branch continues to inspire young engineers to lead the way in addressing global challenges, ensuring a greener and more sustainable future.
The initiative also focused on ensuring that these plants would thrive by involving students in their continued care and maintenance.
The event was a success, reinforcing the IEEE Day theme of advancing technology for the benefit of humanity while contributing positively to environmental sustainability.
