Prizes NacFun Free Fun n Learn Academy Certificates
The year that ended on December 31, 2020 witnessed an immense global tragedy caused by Covid-19. By far the deadliest pandemic of its kind in over a century, Covid-19 has afflicted 83 million people and led to 1.8 million casualties across the world. India accounted for 10 million cases and over 149,000 deaths. New physical distancing norms have changed the way children, youth and adults live, study, work and play. Schools, colleges and any number of public and private institutions have gone online drastically curtailing our physical activity and adversely affecting our health and immunity against diseases.
28% of India’s population is younger than 14 years of age and 45% is below 25. By its sheer demographic magnitude, the youth in India carries the enormous responsibility of the aspirations of 1.39 billion Indians. In this endeavour, the National Active Championship contest is our way of exciting children and youth to adopt a physically active lifestyle and imbibe a scientific temperament to make them academically focussed, emotionally balanced and better equipped in the pursuit of their passions to lead India to become a healthier, happier, prosperous and progressive nation.
At this juncture, I must also thank all our stakeholders including children, parents and schools for continuously creating and consuming amazing fun sports, co-curricular and academic activities on NacFun platform right through the intense covid-19 lockdowns and thereafter to ensure that children and youth of NacFun community remained healthy and happy.
