Internews’ Earth Journalism Network (EJN) invites communicators from Maharashtra to join a workshop on renewable energy in Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar (Aurangabad) from October 5-7, 2023. This workshop is open to communicators from Maharashtra only.? 

India has committed to meeting 50% of its energy requirements with renewable energy, reducing its projected carbon emissions by one billion metric tons, and reducing the emissions intensity of its GDP by 45% by 2030.?
