Drive measurable planet-positive transformations across nine SDG-aligned verticals through innovation, governance, and community action — ensuring regenerative systems, reduced carbon, and sustainable wellbeing worldwide.
IGEN VIBBGGYOR Navaratna is nine SDG-integrated planet verticals
Circularity & Waste Valorisation, Next Gen Transport, Sustainable Built Environment, Smart Agriculture & Food Systems, Energy Efficiency, Clean Air-Water-Ecosystems, Smart Health & Wellbeing, Digital Sustainability & Future Computing, and Safety Engineering & Global Standards.
Each vertical is grounded in science and purpose, with clearly defined 2030 numerical targets — together representing 2,450+ innovations / IPs, 1,025+ planet-positive zones, 10,000+ certified Change Makers, 1,120+ conclaves & events, 1,750+ SDG Projects, and 4,500+ EDU Clubs worldwide.
These are not just ambitions — these are measurable deliverables. This is a whole-planet action architecture designed to transition our systems from extractive to regenerative; from high carbon to low carbon; from linear consumption to circular value; and from inequality to equitable wellbeing.
Through the IGEN VIBBGGYOR Navaratna, we are institutionalising the world's most urgent transformations into one integrated planetary action framework — that the global IGEN family can implement, measure, audit, improve and scale in service of our shared future.

From Bharath to the World: Presidential Message on Green Declaration for the VIBBGGYOR Era
IGEN was founded with one commitment to transform intent into measurable planetary action.
we launch the IGEN VIBBGGYOR Navaratna, we are institutionalising nine strategic verticals that convert global sustainability ambition into outcomes that the planet can feel through science, innovation, standards, SDG-linked projects and continuous Change Maker cultivation.
Each colour is a mission. Each mission is a pathway. Each pathway is measurable towards 2030. This is not just a framework - this is IGEN's accountability to the planet. We do this not for recognition, but because the future deserves it.
Under The Institution of Green Engineers, our 9 VIBBGGYOR Vertical Pillars are now fully aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Through Circularity & Waste Valorisation, Next Gen Transport, Sustainable Built Environment, Smart Agriculture & Food Systems, Energy Efficiency, Clean Air-Water & Ecosystems, Smart Health & Wellbeing, Digital Sustainability & Future Computing, and Safety Engineering & Global Standards we are positioning IGEN as a scientific force to protect our Mother Earth.
Through these 9 pillars, we shall work as IGEN Doctors of the Planet diagnosing the causes, designing the remedies, and delivering the measurable climate & sustainability outcomes that will help maintain the Planet's temperature under normal levels.
For every Pillar under IGEN VIBBGGYOR, we are now constituting a working governance structure one Chairman, one Secretary and 10 Committee Members - who will drive focussed research, green projects, policy contributions, knowledge creation, and impactful events.
This is not just organisational structure. This is the IGEN Action Engine for the next decades. From today... VIBBGGYOR is LIVE under IGEN to create real outcomes for humanity and for our Planet.
"Change begins within align your heart, balance the Panchabhutas, act for climate control, and commit to sustainable action for a thriving planet." Dr. L. Ramesh (President, IGEN)

Concluding Statement & Remarks
The IGEN VIBBGGYOR Navaratna is not a document. It is a planetary commitment. It is a declaration that climate action can be measured, engineered, governed and delivered through scientific verticals powered by the collective intelligence of humanity.
Therefore, we now call upon Green Thinkers from the 8.2 billion people of this Planet, and from every Academic Institution, Industry, Government, NGO, Civil Society Organisation and Community to join IGEN, co-create SDG 17 Partnerships, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with us to implement the IGEN VIBBGGYOR Targets and achieve the 2030 Deliverables that directly support the SDG 2030 Global Goals.
The Planet already knows the problem. The Science already exists. The Time remaining is limited. Now only collective human will can decide how the decade ends.
Let us unite, collaborate and accelerate - from Bharath to the World to convert VIBBGGYOR 2030 Targets into measurable planetary outcomes. Together, we will deliver a future where Planet + People + Prosperity are all protected and where the PANCHABHUTAS remain in balance for generations to come.
This is our Green Era. This is our Responsibility. This is our Planet.
