Indian Ceramic Society (InCerS) accepted the invitation to join the International Alliance of Societies for a Sustainable Future (SFS) for an initial period of two years, covering the membership years 2026 and 2027. This membership may be revoked at any time and does not involve any financial commitment. InCerS has nominated the following two representatives to serve on the SFS Board:
Dr Sitendu Mandal (Honorary Secretary, InCerS) and Professor Vikram Jayaram (Council Member, InCerS)
Both representatives will act on behalf of InCerS in SFS Board meetings, and either may serve as a deputy for the other, as required, to ensure continuous representation. We are confident that Professor Vikram Jayaram and Dr. Sitendu Mandal will contribute meaningfully to the Board’s deliberations and help provide India with an important and much-needed voice in this global sustainability dialogue.
InCerS looks forward to strengthening this valuable international alliance and to a fruitful and meaningful association with SFS.
