Project Sitaara: Empowering Students with Real-World Insights from Industry Professionals

Published on: 11 January, 2025

Launched in November 2024, Seva Sadan’s beloved Project Sitaara has quickly become a source of inspiration for our students, with each session offering invaluable career insights from accomplished professionals. The initiative aims to introduce students to different vocations, helping them understand the diverse career paths available and encouraging them to dream big. Through this initiative, we hope to show our students that no career or dream job is beyond their reach.

Our first session kicked off with a talk by Dr. Sabharwal, a renowned gynecologist, who shared her career journey, offering a wealth of knowledge about the medical field. This session set the tone for the project, sparking curiosity and motivation among the students to explore various professions.

For the second session, we had the pleasure of hosting Mr. Imtiyaz Shaikh, a successful engineer and entrepreneur. Mr. Shaikh’s journey was one filled with challenges, decisions, and perseverance. He opened up about the struggles and successes he faced along the way, explaining the tough choices he had to make to pursue his dreams. His insights into staying motivated through difficult times and his current endeavors were incredibly motivating for the students. During the session, Mr. Shaikh emphasized the importance of education, hard work, and resilience in achieving one’s aspirations. He encouraged the girls to set high goals for themselves, stressing that they could overcome any obstacles through determination and dedication. Following the talk, a lively question-and-answer session took place, with students eager to gain more knowledge from Mr. Shaikh’s experiences.

Looking ahead, Project Sitaara continues to bring inspiring figures from various industries. We are excited to announce that Dr. Sakeera Khan will be visiting later this month, bringing yet another unique perspective and valuable insight to our students. With each session, Project Sitaara is helping our students expand their horizons, fueling their aspirations, and showing them that with the right guidance, they can achieve anything they set their minds to.
