Eco-friendly and Sustainable Campus
Indraprastha College for Women has been at the forefront of maintaining a green and sustainable College campus.
The College has taken suitable steps for optimizing its water usage, harnessing solar energy, minimizing waste generation, segregation of waste and subsequent recycling and converting leaf litter and canteen waste into organic manure. Shanti Paath, a best practice in the college announced in 2016-17 on a five-year plan, continues to encourage the awareness and practices of sustainable development within a holistic vision of the environment and its relation to society.
