ELC-SLS (Environmental Law Cell of Symbiosis Law School, Hyderabad) organising National Article Writing Competition

About the Organization

The concept of ‘Symbiosis’ is nurtured by Dr. S. B. Mujumdar, Chancellor, Symbiosis International (Deemed University) on the principles of Vedic thought ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ which means ‘World as One Family’. Symbiosis Law School (SLS) Hyderabad was established in 2014 inheriting splendid novelty, dynamism and excellence in the education of Symbiosis International Deemed University, Pune.

About the Environmental Law Cell

Environmental Law Cell (ELC), one of the many cells/ centres of Symbiosis Law School, Hyderabad was established with the motto of incorporating a sense of responsibility towards the environment among students and creating awareness about each person’s individual responsibilities to contribute in the prevention of future degradation of the environment. Through the Cell, the members educate the students in campus and people off campus about the need for environment conservation and Sustainable Development through various activities like plantation drive, awareness camps, national seminars, webinars, jumble sale, competitions, etc. The Cell also takes the initiative to celebrate environmentally important days through awareness.

About the Event

The National Article Writing Competition is to be conducted in the lead up to the World Water Day, which is celebrated on the 22nd of March, 2022. World Water Day celebrates water while also creating awareness of the billions of people who do not have access to clean drinking water. The goal is to find solutions and put them into action to handle the world’s water crisis. The realization of Sustainable Development Goal 6: Water and Sanitation for all by 2030 is a major focus of World Water Day. In the 30th meeting of UN-Water held at Rome, the theme for World Water Day, 2022 was decided as “Ground Water: Making the Invisible Visible” and the same is the theme of the Competition.

The sub-themes for the competition are:

1. National Water Policy, 2002 and Drinking Water Issues.

3. Role of Institutions, Infrastructure and Technology in meeting Global Water Challenges.
