2025 was among the hottest years ever recorded. 🔥
Around the world, people faced extreme heat, devastating floods, powerful storms, wildfires, and rising seas.
These are not isolated events. They are signals from a planet under pressure.
We were told to keep global warming below 1.5°C. We are now crossing that line. Every delay means more climate disasters and more lives at risk.
But there is still hope. Clean energy is growing, forests are being restored, and communities everywhere are taking action.
This World Environment Day, the message is clear: #NowForClimate
🌱 Plant a tree
💡 Save energy
♻️ Reduce waste
🚲 Choose sustainable transport
The planet is sending signals. Are we listening?

Let’s Talk Periods: IFI Foundation Empowers Young Minds to Lead Menstrual Health Awareness
Menstruation should never be a barrier to health, dignity, education, or opportunity. Yet stigma and misinformation continue to hold millions back.
Through the #LetsTalkPeriods public health outreach campaign at World Skill Center, Bhubaneswar, IFI Foundation and WSC brought together young minds to drive a powerful conversation on menstrual health awareness, dignity, and inclusion.
More than an event, this initiative was a collective effort to normalise conversations around menstruation, challenge harmful misinformation, and build a future where every girl and woman can manage her menstrual health with confidence and without shame.
The change begins with awareness and young people can become catalysts to help create a truly #PeriodFriendlyWorld for all.
