are many opportunities of making contributions. The city of Jaipur is an
emerging city that seems to have commercial hubs and enormous
opportunities for investments in the development sector. This gives
immense opportunities to the talent that can contribute where the NHRD
and other institution’s support the aspirations. This ideally helps to
make a contribution and impact in their areas of work. We have created
an ecosystem to recognize the actions and excellence of these young
people in the Northern region.”
Dr. Prabhat, Pankaj, Director

NHRD Jaipur Chapter, spoke of the agendas from the HRCS Report and said,
“Simplify things and business so no scope for complexity and ambiguity.
Be specific in what you want to achieve. Advancement of human
capability where does the human stand and how companies value human
potential. Age of collaboration and not isolation where institutions
must look at each other in synergy and not as adversity. We must
champion three things a) Diversity, b) Equity and c) Inclusivity. The
NEP is a great example that is in its new realm where it tries to change
the education system through intent and content. Teacher empowerment
through teacher training, technological dexterity of teachers vis-à-vis
students, ways of assessment must be changed- change from grading to
assessment, parallel engagement of parents.”
