AIRTEL DELHI HALF MARATHON:An experience of Nada volunteer Mincy 
                                                              20th October 2019
                                                                  #GOBEYOND
A night before the event there were butterflies in my stomach that how everything gonna be tomorrow. I reached JNL stadium around 6:00 a.m. , it was dawn. There were so many participants running and everyone seemed so energetic and enthusiastic,  so initially I was just observing  everything happening and then  I heard the announcement “ GOOOD MORNINGGG RUNNERSS, NOW IT’S THE TIME , THE RACE IS ABOUT TO START SO GEAR UP”  This made me even more excited and was getting more curious after each passing moment. I registered my name in the competition “RUN IN COSTUME” , there were so many participants in their beautiful costumes spreading beautiful and meaningful  messages, fighting against use of plastics, pollution, violation of natural resources, discrimination etc. from different NGOs working together for social cause like 
 “MOTIVATION INDIA, NAZ FOUNDATION, INDIA CARES etc. Where Nada India , Young India Network For Good  Health participated  with its vision “Nasha mukt parivar har bacche ka adhikar!”  as its been working with violence affected children and women since 2004,thanks to our designer Kiran maam and Afilash sir for their efforts in making the costume. It was a great experience, I believe team Nada India will not only participate but will win the competition next year. All of us then together started the 5km marathon, it was tiring yet cheerful. No doubt it was conducted very well i think this may be the reason why once people connected to it keep coming back. Hats off to all agencies who made this event a big success. Especial thanks to NADA for providing this opportunity to showcase our talents . It was an awesome experience in participating in ADHM. 
Afilash T.Issac, Shubham Vatsyayan, Vindhya Vatsyayan were competed their Delhi Great Run 2019.

A Journey That Became Purpose

A Journey That Became Purpose By Sagar Kumar Jha Some journeys don’t just build your career—they shape who you are. My time with the Nada India Foundation has been one of those journeys. I joined as an intern, not fully aware of how deeply this experience would influence me. What began as a learning opportunity soon became a space where I understood the real meaning of public health, community connection, and grassroots impact. Working on community profiling in Haryana taught me that public health is not just about data—it is about listening and understanding people’s realities. Leading a team of 30 peers for a tobacco cessation project further shaped my confidence and sense of responsibility. One of the most meaningful parts of my journey was working closely with minors consuming tobacco and engaging with shopkeepers who sold these products. These interactions helped me understand how awareness gaps, social norms, and accessibility contribute to the problem. This experience la...

Nada India connected virtually with eCPR practitioners in India #COVID19

` On Saturday, March 28th 2020, the team of Nada India connected virtually with their co- eCPR  practitioners at 4 p.m to discuss their wellbeing in times of coronavirus and the contribution of the training of eCPR in their lives and the lives of people around them during the lockdown. The idea was to establish a virtual safe space like the physical one that they had created at the training. Kushangi , a clinical psychologist by training, is finding respite in the fact that she can help people in emotional/mental distress by enlisting her services with an NGO that connects her with such people. The discussion was moderated by Riya Thapliyal Nada Team member and facilitated by Suneel Vatsyayan. Emotional crisis is universal. It can happen to anyone at any time.   “ eCPR kaafi practice kar pa rahi hun aur realise kar rahi hun ki koi bhi crisis sirf uss vyakti ki baat sunne se kaafi hadd tak hal ho jaati hai. (I am practicing eCPR quite a lot and I am realising...
