Humana People to People India, in collaboration with the State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT), Bihar, organised the Annual Planning and Review Meet 2026 from 28 September to 1 October in Varanasi. The four-day meeting brought together DIET Principals, Nodal Lecturers and HPPI DIET Coordinators from 12 DIETs across Bihar for collective reflection, learning and planning.

The meeting focused on reviewing progress under the Five-Year Development Plan, reflecting on achievements and learnings from the past year, and identifying priorities for 2026–27.

Humana People to People India has started community-based screening under Project SWASTHYA Haryana across 11 districts, bringing integrated Tuberculosis (TB) and Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) screening services closer to vulnerable and underserved communities.

Through dedicated field teams, mobile screening activities and coordination with the district health system, the project is working to promote the early identification of TB symptoms and NCD risks, facilitate timely referrals and connect individuals with appropriate healthcare services.

Humana People to People India was pleased to welcome Dex Hunter-Torricke, Founder of The Centre for Tomorrow, during his visit to the Delhi-NCR region on 17 September 2026.

As part of his visit, Dex visited HPPI’s Kadam Centre in Gurugram, which supports out-of-school children in continuing their education. He interacted with children at the centre and met Kadam alumni who were once out of school and are now pursuing their education in Grades 6 to 12, offering insights into their journeys back to education.

Dex also visited HPPI’s TB health project in Delhi, where AI-enabled technology and portable X-ray machines are being used to support TB screening.
