Brief description of the learnings from the event

Through these events were highly motivating with each event I learned several new ways to
explore myself during this lockdown thereby helping me to utilise this time efficiently.
During Hemater, Our speaker stressed on how important it is that we should donate blood
regularly and not discontinue after doing it once.
Similarly, Tobacco consumption event was for great importance amongst youth as they
shouldn’t spoil their lungs with these malicious substances after seeing what COVID-19 Virus
can do to our lungs if we get infected.
In an event named CASA we learned harmful effects of these drug addiction in our day to day
life and our respected panelist told how recovery could be done when someone is involved in
substance abuse.
I even participated in event called Let’s Talk Empathy where we during the session the speaker
taught the quality of empathy and the necessity of showing empathy to others.She taught us
cause of suicidal thoughts and one of the way to prevent is through Empathy.
Throughout all the events I have attended it was an overall great learning experience for me
thorughtout.
