CONFERENCE SCHEDULE-Click Here
CONFERENCE BACKGROUND
India, that is Bharat, is one of the few continuously inhabited ancient civilizations in the modern world. Being a civilized state, we have understood the transformation from Aham Brahmasmi to Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, and from Upanishads to Upgrah with perfect aplomb. As the nation celebrates its 75 years of independence “आजादी का अमृत महोत्सव”, entering the “Amrit Kaal” the 25 years long leadership of India@100 is a crucial phase which will shape the future.
For the last two years, the world is crippled by a mounting health and economic crisis due to the pandemic; India too felt its impact across all aspects of life and economic sectors. Herein the Honourable Prime Minister’s call for Atmanirbhar Bharat was geared towards making India Resilient and Self Reliant. Aligning with the goal of Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan, the present National conference aims at exploring the prospects and challenges of different sectors of the Indian economy.
With 4th Industrial Revolution unfolding right in front of us, it is crucial that we engage with it to evolve and benefit as a nation. For the first and second industrial revolutions, around the world, India was under British rule. However, its contributions to the same are just being re-discovered and acknowledged. India significantly contributed to the third industrial revolution, the digital revolution, and its footprints are today seen in the IT industry worldwide. For the fourth industrial revolution, India can take up the role of leadership through its collective vision. The Fashion and Textile Industry is one of the largest industries contributing to the Indian economy and has a bigger role to play by accelerating new pathways to innovation, creativity, and growth.
CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES
- To bring together researchers, academicians, professionals, and students from the field of fashion, textiles and business studies to explore the role of Fashion and textile industry in building a self-reliant ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’.
- To explore the various facets of the concept -“farm to fashion to foreign to future” and how the same can be extrapolated for achieving a self-reliant future.
