Finnish handset major Nokia and non-Government organisation, Oxfam India, have launched a fellowship to engage with youth on the theme of sustainable consumption.
The initiative ‘Create to Inspire’ aims to bring together 300 youth from Delhi and Hyderabad and provide them a platform to use music, dance, theatre, drama, film, photography, art and handicraft, design and technology to redefine the consumption of limited resources, a company release said.
Youth aged between18 and 23 in these two cities can submit their applications to participate in the programme by September 9 at www.nokia.com/in-n/createtoinspire.
The 150 shortlisted people will be divided into 25 teams. They will be trained in their areas of interest and guided by a mentor from a creative field, the release added.
The idea behind the project is to encourage sustainable consumption of water, transport, e-waste and energy.
