SUJAAG is excited to bring you a year long series called, Building Better Communities where we come together to discuss ways to improve our community from various aspects.

The second in this series of events is Building a Sustainable community, and we are lucky to have some amazing experts who will help us learn how to make small changes in our everyday lives. 

During this engaging session, we will delve into the power of kindness and explore practical strategies for infusing it into our daily lives and interactions. From simple acts of social etiquette to creating inclusive spaces, we'll discuss how each of us can contribute to creating a more empathetic and supportive community.
