"No Tobacco Tuesdays for Tots". Youth Engagement for Wellbeing

"No Tobacco Tuesdays for Tots" A joint Initiative of ASA- India & Nada India


I recently became a medical intern at Maulna Azad Medical College Delhi and the dream for truly making a difference in our society has started to become a reality with the help of this amazing opportunity of running a month long campaign on passive smoking in children, called, "No Tobacco Tuesdays for Tots". Dr.Vrinda Pahuja: A Young Medical Intern and Volunteer 

I remember when my team at AMSA India and I were brainstorming about a campaign for "World  No Tobacco Day 2020", we could have never predicted that we would be able to collaborate with a reputable NGO like Nada India Foundation. 



Through Nada India, I also had the honour of representing the medical fraternity on the panel discussion on "Engaging Young People To Respond To New Emerging Tobacco Threats" that happened on 1st June'20 which also kickstarted the campaign.  Listening to other speakers on the panel was truly inspirational and gave me insight into all the initiatives that are being taken for this cause.

I am thankful to both the organisations, Nada India and AMSA India, for giving me this opportunity, and to my team for helping me to make it happen. To be able to address the issue among youth live surely helped in increasing the impact factor of the issue in hand that we are tackling. For even one life saved makes all the difference! I look forward to more such collaborative endeavours in the future.

Exploring the Streets of Bengaluru: Face Reading and Shared Risks

Sometimes, the most profound lessons come from stepping out into the world, engaging with people from all walks of life, and embracing the shared risks that come with unconventional learning experiences... Suneel My recent stay in Bengaluru took an unexpected turn when I decided to explore the back lanes of MG Road. Little did I know that a chance encounter with a psychology student would open up a fascinating experience of face reading right there on the bustling streets. As I strolled down MG Road, absorbing the energy and chaos of the city, my attention was drawn to a student of psychology standing just after the Metro station. What caught my eye was a playful cardboard sign that boldly declared, "Myth: Psychologists can read faces. Fun Fact: Psychologists can actually read faces!" Intrigued and amused, I approached him, struck by the audacity of his endeavor. Leaning against an electric pole, he invited people from the street to get their faces read. It took courage to st
