The Centre of Excellence (CoE) for Sustainability and Climate Action at CCAMP in partnership with @AshrayaHastha will be a major step in India’s mission to combat #ClimateChange with cutting-edge bio-based solutions! Supporting this partnership, @doctorsoumya, Chairperson @mssrf, in her special address added — "Climate change is affecting all our lives but especially the climate-vulnerable populations such as fishermen, farmers, agricultural stakeholders along the coast. We need to make our agriculture and food systems climate-proof and climate-resilient. I welcome this C-CAMP Ashraya Hastha Trust CoE for sustainability and climate action and look forward to collaborating towards bringing sustainability in solutions moving beyond science alone" Prof. @kvijayraghavan, Former Principal Scientific Adviser to GoI, in his address at the launch, noted — “For truly sustainable development, we need to urgently move beyond developing technology oriented products. To find solutions, these products need to be linked to the ground and market. Unless technology speaks to the most affected stakeholders, they cannot solve problems. That is where C-CAMP and this CoE with Ashraya Hastha will play a huge role in helping deploy solutions through collaborations.” CCAMP supported startups @Loopworm1, @Sea6Energy, #MicrobeworksScientific, #EarthKind Innovations, @StringBio, #UltraNutri, @krishitantra, #GenePath Diagnostics, & @huwellifesc pitched their innovations in front of various climate stakeholders including investors and govt. officials CCAMP invites individuals and organisations committed to sustainability and climate action to connect with our initiative @CMofKarnataka @dineshgrao @PriyankKharge @NCheluvarayaS @DHFWKA @ITBTGoK @DrJitendraSingh @JPNadda @Taslimarif @AshrayaHastha @PrinSciAdvOff @PrinSciAdvGoI @MoHFW_INDIA @IndiaDST @DBTIndia @CSIR_IND @karandi65 @rajesh_gokhale @moefcc @WHO @WHOSEARO @BIRAC_2012 @AIMtoInnovate @NITIAayog @startupindia @DPIITGoI @Startup_Kar @meitystartuphub @Ktech_biotech @kiranshaw @kris_sg @RenuSwarup @anilgb @SharmaShradha @YourStoryCo @DeccanHerald @TOIBengaluru @the_hindu @EconomicTimes @IndianExpress @IndiaToday
