\u201cThe effort must go beyond the curriculum. Let there be genuine dialogue across disciplines. Let every lecture in every classroom become a doorway to new possibilities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The 2-day event will offer a distinctive platform to youth from diverse disciplines to create one future. The festival will educate the mind, energize the body and ignite innovation.<\/p>\n
