IIM Indore Students Makes World Record: Creates Largest Sanitiser Sachets' Mosaic

Just like previous years, students of IIM-Indore have once again focussed on breaking a world record. As a part of IRIS 2021, IIM-Indore’s Annual management and cultural fest, the students have created the Asian record for the largest mosaic made of sanitizer sachets. The ideology was to generate consciousness about hygiene and sanitization to tackle the ongoing pandemic and thus, live a healthy, clean, and safe life.

The Mosaic milestone

For their annual management and cultural fest, IRIS 2021, students of IIM-Indore always come up with something creative to create awareness among the citizens. The ongoing pandemic has instilled fear and urged us to take sanitization seriously. Taking inspiration from this, the students decided to create a mosaic, depicting the importance of sanitization. The students were hoping to create awareness for future generations to recognize the indispensable importance and necessity of using sanitizers to live in a healthy and safe environment.

The mosaic is 650 sq ft in area and utilizes a total of 40,000 sanitizer sachets. The team consists of 25 students who participated in the execution, working continuously for more than 10 hours. IIM-Indore has a legacy to create socially-responsible leaders, managers, and entrepreneurs, who will contribute to nation-building. Like previous years, IIM-Indore students continued the legacy of the institute by starting the fest, creating awareness about a social cause. Every year, IIM Indore students attempt to break a world record to create awareness about a social cause/issue.

A word from IRIS coordinators

Anjali Mishra and Varun Anand (coordinators, IRIS 21) said: With an end in sight to raise awareness, educate and mobilize communities about a pertinent social issue such as hygiene and sanitation which we face in these challenging times, notwithstanding all the roadblocks, the team was able to get to its milestone.
