By combining creativity with environmental education, the programme successfully promoted the values of Mission LiFE and strengthened student engagement in environmental stewardship and responsible citizenship.

Held at Academic Block-I, the competition provided a vibrant platform for students to creatively express their understanding of environmental challenges and the urgent need for climate action. Participants translated complex environmental concerns into compelling visual messages, demonstrating both artistic talent and environmental awareness.

The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from students across different departments of the university. Through their posters, participants highlighted critical issues such as climate change, biodiversity conservation, sustainable living, pollution control, and community responsibility toward environmental protection.

Beyond fostering creativity, the competition contributed significantly to student learning and engagement. Participants developed critical thinking skills, enhanced their ability to communicate environmental messages effectively, and gained deeper insights into sustainable practices and climate-related challenges. The activity also encouraged environmental responsibility and inspired students to become advocates for sustainability within their communities.

A total of 23 students, along with faculty members, participated in the programme. The poster exhibition further extended the impact of the event by creating awareness among the university community and promoting dialogue on environmental stewardship.
