💚 A Movement Beyond a Walk

The Pune WDDD Walk was more than an event — it was a reminder to pause, breathe, and reconnect with life beyond screens. It echoed WDDD’s core belief that even a small break from technology can lead to peace, clarity, and stronger human connections.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined hands to support this cause and inspire families, youth, and communities to embrace mindful living.

Let us continue to grow this movement and remind the world to live offline… even for a moment.
