It was truly refreshing to hear Dr. M.P. Parameswaran speak at the opening of the International Science Film Festival. His message that science should prioritize collective happiness over mindless consumption or money-making is exactly what our education system needs right now. We often push students toward high-paying tech jobs, but we forget that science's true purpose is improving the quality of life for everyone. I am particularly excited about the District Panchayat’s plan to train students and teachers in Thrissur to produce 100 science films for next year! This kind of grassroots movement turns science from a dry textbook subject into a creative, living experience. Whether it is films like 'Pride of Kerala' or 'Arivinte Lokam,' we are seeing a shift toward a more conscious, human-centric approach to scientific discovery and communication. 🎥🔬✨ #science #education #culture https://thoxt.com/l/OAEHYR 🔗
