A significant component of Impact RISE includes missions that address climate resilience in sensitive regions such as the Sundarbans. By integrating academic excellence with real-world challenges, the initiative seeks to empower communities, drive inclusive growth, and support the nation’s sustainability goals through skill-building and innovation-driven approaches.
