The workshops in Pune saw students actively participating in interactive activities, such as creating traffic signs and developing safety slogans.
Envalior's StreetSmarties campaign, in association with ETAuto, has reached the vibrant city of Pune. This road safety initiative, focusing on educating pre-primary children, aims to instill crucial safety habits from a young age.

After successful workshops in Delhi-NCR, Gujarat, Bangalore, and Mumbai, the campaign has brought its mission to Pune, a city known for its educational and cultural significance. With road safety being a pressing concern and thousands of lives lost to traffic accidents each year, Envalior is dedicated to making a difference through education.

Cheeranjeev Ajmera, Regional Business Controller at Envalior, highlighted the campaign's impact, stating, "Safety is a core value for Envalior. By partnering with ETAuto, we have created 3,000 road safety champions, young ambassadors who will spread awareness among their friends and families, helping India to become a safer country in the future."

Gayatri Phoujdar, Global Talent and Engagement Lead at Envalior, added, "Today, we engaged with students from grades six, seven, and eight, discussing how they can contribute to road safety, be careful themselves, and guide others. The students' enthusiasm and creativity in making posters and expressing their ideas on paper have been truly inspiring."

The workshops in Pune saw students actively participating in interactive activities, such as creating traffic signs and developing safety slogans. These activities not only educate but also engage young minds in a fun and meaningful way. The children shared their learnings through slogans like, "Drive slowly and live longer" and "Drive slowly, your family needs you," emphasising the importance of cautious driving.

Interactive quizzes and demonstrations reinforced the safety lessons, with outstanding efforts recognised through awards and certificates of participation. The campaign aims to foster a generation that will contribute to safer roads in India.

The StreetSmarties campaign has been more than a series of workshops; it has been a movement towards a safer future on our roads. The organizers expressed gratitude to all participants, schools, and sponsors for their unwavering support.
