The third edition of the ceremony to be held under the theme ‘Celebrating change makers’, is organised annually to recognize, honor, and celebrate change-makers, volunteer leaders, NGOs, philanthropists, corporations, and professionals to advance the importance of their incredible contributions to society. The project also provides a platform for them to tell their stories, share their impact as well as network with others in the field.

Through this initiative, we are presented with another opportunity not only to celebrate change makers but showcase the individual and collective works of people who are earnestly inspiring the next generation of leaders in and beyond”.
