Shillong: In a proud moment for India, Meghalaya’s pioneering efforts in governance and maternal health have been honoured as a jury favourite at the prestigious Creative Bureaucracy Festival held in Berlin, June 2025.
Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma shared the news, highlighting the global recognition as a testament to the power of collaborative leadership. “This recognition is more than just an award, it’s a powerful reminder of what’s possible when government leadership works hand-in-hand with committed grassroots networks. Together, we’ve shown that meaningful change begins when people come first,” he stated.
Meghalaya’s integrated approach — combining policy innovation with community engagement — has been instrumental in addressing maternal and infant health challenges. While the journey toward achieving zero maternal and infant mortality continues, Sangma affirmed that accolades like this reaffirm the state’s commitment and momentum.
“Onward, Team Meghalaya!” he concluded, celebrating the achievement as both a milestone and a motivator for future progress.
