Hyderabad: A vibrant exchange of ideas is underway at the Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad (IITH), which has opened its doors to young scientific minds from across the globe for its first-ever International Conference of Young Scientists. Running from June 8 to 14, the event has drawn over 200 delegates from 60 countries, creating a dynamic platform for collaborative research and innovation.

The week-long gathering, hosted in collaboration with the Global Young Academy (GYA), the Indian National Young Academy of Science (INYAS), and the Indian National Science Academy (INSA), is being held in India for the first time. Titled “Confluence of Visionaries: Empowering Science for Global Change,” the conference aims to foster fresh perspectives and drive interdisciplinary solutions to some of the world’s most pressing challenges.

Union Minister of Education Dharmendra Pradhan inaugurated the conference on Tuesday, highlighting India’s scientific heritage and its deep roots in knowledge, ethics, and sustainability. Drawing on the G20 theme of “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam,” he underscored India’s commitment to global solidarity and collaboration in science. Pradhan praised the contributions of ancient Indian thinkers and lauded the country’s strides in sectors ranging from space to big data and digital infrastructure.

“Science is transformative,” he said. “It is central to Viksit Bharat—a developed India that balances economic progress with scientific excellence.” Pradhan also spotlighted grassroots innovation through initiatives like Atal Tinkering Labs and the ANRF, emphasising the importance of an inclusive and flexible education system that empowers every aspiring scientist.

Prof. Asutosh Sharma, President of INSA, underscored the need for global understanding and inclusivity in tackling contemporary challenges. He called for greater gender and age diversity in scientific leadership and urged a balanced approach that integrates science with social sciences to drive autonomous decision-making in an interconnected world. “The youth are key,” he said, “and their aspirations must shape policy and practice if we are to truly meet the challenges of the 21st century.”

Yensi Flores Bueso, Co-chair of the GYA, showcased the academy’s mission to foster global networks, build capacity, and promote leadership among young researchers. She outlined the academy’s activities that aim to bridge cultures and disciplines, inspiring fresh ideas and cross-border collaborations.

Dr. B V R Mohan Reddy, Chairman of IITH’s Board of Governors, reminded delegates that science must ultimately serve humanity. He noted that transformative change in education and science is reshaping the nation’s future, powered by public-private partnerships and a shared commitment to societal good. “Science is not just about discovery; it’s about trust and tangible impact,” he emphasised.

Prof. B. S. Murty, Director of IITH, expressed pride in hosting such a prestigious gathering. “This conference brings together early-career scientists from around the world to collaborate and innovate for a better tomorrow,” he said. “IITH remains dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary research and nurturing scientific leadership that transcends borders.”

Prof. Chandra Shekhar Sharma, Co-Chair of the conference, described the event as a testament to the power of collaboration. “With India’s legacy of scientific excellence and a dynamic, youthful energy, we are perfectly positioned to spark meaningful discussions and form partnerships that can change the world,” he said.

In a symbolic gesture reflecting the conference’s commitment to sustainability, IITH also launched a Mega Plantation Drive, planting around 500 flowering and shade trees across its campus. The event included the release of a booklet highlighting the pioneering research of PMRF scholars at IITH, showcasing the cutting-edge work driving innovation in science and engineering.

As India continues to champion knowledge sharing and global scientific collaboration, this conference stands as a milestone in building a more connected and inclusive scientific community.
