Focal Theme
Transformative Science and Technology Education for Viksit Bharat

Transformative Science and Technology Education aims to empower students for the sustainable development of the world and act as a catalyst for individual and societal change. Key aspects of transformative education include cultivating critical thinking and problem-solving, fostering innovation and creativity, promoting interdisciplinary approaches, and infusing ethical and responsible research. Furthermore, it involves the participation of the general public to solve local issues more scientifically and enable informed decision-making. Transformative S&T Education is critical for achieving the vision of Viksit Bharat during the Amrit Kaal, creating a future-ready, scientifically literate workforce capable of driving India's journey towards becoming a self- reliant, prosperous, and globally influential nation by 2047. The venue of the Congress further signifies the relevance of the focal theme as it deeply intertwined with the NEP serving as a foundational framework to enable such transformative learning in India.
