On the occasion of World Earth Day, the Nagpur Chapter of India Peace Centre organised a meaningful and engaging program on 22nd April 2026 at India Peace Centre, Civil Lines, Nagpur. The program was centered around the theme of sustainable living and environmental responsibility.
There were two special highlights of the event:
1. The “Swap PreLoved Things” initiative, which was conducted by RJ Preeti, has witnessed enthusiastic participation from a good number of people. Participants brought along their gently used, good-quality items. These items included clothes and books, as well as household goods, and shared them with others. The atmosphere was filled with joy and openness, as individuals freely chose and took items they needed, without any hesitation or prejudices. This thoughtful exchange promoted a spirit of community, equality, and conscious consumption.
2. A sustainable painting workshop conducted by an artist, Nikita. She demonstrated how to create beautiful artwork using natural ingredients such as turmeric, leaves, sunlight and water, encouraging participants to explore eco-friendly artistic practices.
This event was attended and largely appreciated by distinguished members, including the Director Angelious Michael, Treasurer and IPC Board Member Dr Tejinder Singh Rawal, along with other associates of IPC.
Adding to the vibrant ambience, Mohnissh and other performers presented soothing musical pieces, enhancing the overall experience and bringing people together through art and music.
The core idea behind the initiative was to promote environmental conservation by reducing waste and encouraging the reuse of items that might otherwise be discarded. By giving these items a second life, the event emphasised a simple yet powerful message: small collective actions can significantly help preserve the Earth.
Overall, the program was a heartfelt and impactful celebration of sustainability, community spirit, and shared responsibility towards our planet.
