“NATIONAL EDUCATION POLICY - 2020 (NEPCON2020)”

WEBINAR ON

INTERNATIONAL

is organising

th th28 - 30 August, 2020

Why the Webinar???The National Education Policy 2020 envisions a contemporary education system that foresees to contribute

directly to transform our nation sustainably into an equitable and vibrant knowledge society, by providing high

quality education to all. This Policy envisages creation, transmission, use and dissemination of knowledge as a

part of the continuum. The NEP is ambitious and futuristic but much of its success will depend on how it is

executed. There is a need to create awareness about NEP amongst teachers, students, officials, and other

stakeholders in the higher education system so that we can together help India in becoming a knowledge

superpower. To enhance the moral, ethics, and quality of education we as academic leaders are committed to

provide constant guidance to our academic fraternity and inspire them to join hands for making this NEP a

grand success. Therefore by adopting ICT for next generation as socially responsible leaders we hereby abide to

the UGC Quality Mandate for improving the quality in Higher Education Institutions and therefore under the

UGC guidance further are organizing an Online Conference for spreading awareness regarding NEP 2020

referring to point 5 of the notification. This Conference holds the vision of engaging academic fraternity in

meaningful assignment along with spreading awareness regarding NEP which will contribute towards the

intellectual wealth of the nation

About the Theme…Education is the backbone of any nation which provides universal access to leadership on the global stage in

terms of economic growth, social justice and equality, scientific advancement, national integration, and

cultural preservation. As the youth population of India is going to be highest in the world over the next decade,

it is a challenging task to provide high-quality education to determine the future of our country.

The New National Education Policy (NEP) was approved by the Union Cabinet on 29th July 2020 and it is the first

such policy in the last 34 years. By the passage of more than three decades many significant changes have taken

place in our country, society, economy, and the world at large. At this juncture the education sector needs to

gear itself to meet the demands of the people and the country in 21st century.

The National Education Policy 2020 proposes the revision and revamping of all aspects of the education

structure, including its regulation and governance, to create a new system that is aligned with the aspirational

goals of education, while building upon India’s traditions and value systems. The New Education Policy aims at

an inclusive, participatory and holistic approach, however particularly emphasising on the development of the

creative potential of each individual. It is based on the principle that education must develop the ‘Foundational

Capacities’ of Literacy and Numeracy and ‘High-Order Cognitive Capacities’, such as critical thinking and

problem solving and also Social, Ethical, and Emotional Capacities and Dispositions.

The world is undergoing rapid changes in the knowledge landscape. With various dramatic, scientific and

technological advances, such as the rise of big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, many

unskilled jobs worldwide may be taken over by machines, while the need for a skilled workforce, in conjunction

with multidisciplinary abilities across the sciences, social sciences, and humanities, will be increasingly in

greater demand. The growing emergence of epidemics and pandemics will also call for collaborative research

in infectious disease management and development of vaccines and the resultant social issues heightens the

need for multidisciplinary learning. There will be a growing demand for humanities and art, as India moves

towards becoming a developed country as well as among the three largest economies in the world.

The gap between the current state of learning outcomes and what is required must be bridged through

undertaking major reforms that bring the highest quality, equity, and integrity into the system, from early

childhood care and education through higher education.
