PARIVARTAN – The ECO Club of SACCM
Change Begins Here

ABOUT THE CLUB

Parivartan, the Eco Club of Sri Aurobindo College of Commerce and Management, embodies the spirit of conscious change — both within us and in the world around us. The name Parivartan, meaning transformation, reflects Sri Aurobindo’s vision of integral sustainability — where outer progress is rooted in inner awareness. The club aims to nurture this evolution by inspiring students to live harmoniously with nature and to take mindful, responsible actions that contribute to a sustainable future.

Driven by student initiative and guided by faculty mentors, Parivartan serves as a platform for learning, reflection, and action. It brings together individuals who believe that meaningful change begins with awareness — and that even small, consistent steps can lead to a larger shift towards ecological balance.

MISSION

To awaken ecological consciousness within the college community through experiential learning and creative engagement.

MEMBERSHIP

Membership in Parivartan is open to all students, faculty, and staff members who wish to contribute to environmental well-being.
