Gadkari Launches National Organ Donation Campaign at GICA 2025, Honors 21 Distinguished Indian Achievers Globally
The Global Indians Conclave & Awards (GICA) 2025, an initiative by the NGO "I Am Still Human", took place on 5th August 2025 at Shangri-La Eros, New Delhi. The event, which brought together distinguished leaders, entrepreneurs, innovators, and changemakers from across India and abroad, was marked by the launch of a nationwide Organ Donation Awareness Campaign.
The campaign, inspired by the vision shared by Shri Nitin Gadkari, Minister of Road Transport and Highways of India, aims to mobilize 11,000 organ donation pledges by August 2026. The strategic partner supporting this initiative is the Micron Group.
The day started with Shri Nitin Gadkari delivering an inspiring keynote address, followed by two panel discussions: "Startups & IPOs: Is India the New Wall Street of Asia?" and "Unicorns or Camels? What Kind of Startups Should India Build Now?". The event was honoured by the presence of several esteemed dignitaries, including Lt. Gen. K J Singh (Retd.), Romesh Vig, Girish Deshmukh, Dr. Sanjay Jain, and others.
The conclave received representation from top-tier print, digital, and radio platforms, including Times of India, Hindustan Times, and Big FM. Over 551 pledges have already been secured, and the initiative aims to continue encouraging real-time participation with an on-site registration desk at the event.
