Ahmedabad, May 21: Ankit Pushpraj Verma, an NID (National Institute of Design) student from the SDM 22 batch, was selected as a delegate from India for the Young Leader’s Sustainability Week held in Uzbekistan. The global summit, hosted by the International Institute of Meta Professionals (IIMPs) in partnership with the United Nations, UN Women, and UNDP, brought together over 100 youth leaders from more than 80 countries.
